Pros

great health benefits, vacation time, personal time, etc.

Cons

Very demanding, between all the tasks and having to do excellent customer service with one person maybe two everyday is not very realistic. I feel the /'higher ups" are very unrealistic with their expections and goals for certain stores. one size DOES NOT fit all stores. they say they look at the the stores differently based by traffic flow, area, and competiton stores but if they did we wouldnt have half the of the workload problems we do now. the need to go back to the drawing board and figure out how we can get the work done right without killing oursselves in the process.

Pros

opportunity for advancement pay is competitive scheduling conflicts handled well really fun atmosphere able to expand personal experience and knowledge in sales, working with customers etc.

Cons

working with people who are immature and dont have a good work ethic or skill or desire due to the fact that most are very young and students. Not always the greatest feedback and review system set up for employees.
