Pros

for the benfits if you are part time or full time and can afford it

Cons

hire managment positions from outside the company but always talk about hiring from within. They even have programs to go through to get advanced but even after doing the progarms they still hire someone from outside the company and then want you to teach that person how to do the job they were hired for.

Pros

→Considering the work I do, $15 an hour (especially as a recently graduated high school student) is very, very good. →Whenever I need help with anything, I can rely on fellow associates and they are always willing to lend me a hand. We’ve become so close to the point where we have parties at each other’s houses after work hours. →My immediate supervisor keeps our schedule fair and organized, and lets us take days off without asking why.

Cons

There are a few managers/supervisors, however, that treat associates unequally. They have their favorites, and I am definitely not one of them.
