Pros

Great relationship with co-workers, everyone is really friendly and you make some great friends. Not too strict or lenient, managers are very willing to accommodate your needs.

Cons

Hard to know all the technologies and all the specifics about every shoe when not working a lot. But all co-workers and managers are willing to help you out a lot.

Pros

I liked the employee discount and the friendly atmosphere with my fellow coworkers. We had sales goals but it was not a do or die sales environment.

Cons

Crappy crappy salary and terrible hours. I was a full timer and half of my time there barely worked 24 hours. It was pathetic really.
