Occasional rude customers -Managers somtimes rude and unprofessional -Get written up for every little violation and can be terminated if an irate customer complains about you -Getting stuck with closing schedules and sometimes coming in to open the next morning -Inconsistent scheduling -Benefits take a while to get -Managers show a lot of favoritism -"Customer is always right" policy. Allows customers to act whiny for no reason -No employee discounts -Long hours on your feet -Not enough workers. Can get chaotic during busy times. -Evaluation system -Mangers are also hypocritical. I've seen them do things that they berate the workers for doing.

Pros

They can teach very good work ethic to the younger generation if it's the very first job. You work with great upper management and the training you receive is bar none.

Cons

Sometime burnout can occur working the retail business but other than that I have nothing negative about this company
