Pros

Set Breaks 30 mins to hour and 15 mins Easy Job Change your availability to whatever you want but could effect your hours

Cons

Changing policies of coupons makes customers upset and hard on the cashier Lazy co workers, con if you're not lazy but if you are then you can easily get away with being lazy People in higher positions treat people below like they are nothing No discounts They BS you on evaluations because they don't want to give out a raise if your pay is higher than most cashiers but someone who has horrible job performance will get a raise because they make less than you.

Pros

Flexible scheduling that makes it ideal for those in high school or college. Great attention to customer service. Friendly work environment.

Cons

Friday through Sunday is the time period where you will most likely get the majority of your hours. Potential for late hours, 11pm and later.

Pros

Benefits, close to home, very nice co-workers, paid weekly

Cons

Often left to fend for yourself even if you've only been there for 1 day on the job. Orientation was fantasy, the reality is that you will rarely have time to use bathroom if at all through entire shift, often "forget" or don't care if employees have had scheduled, required breaks and you will work past your scheduled time most of the week. I can count on one hand how many times I actually got off when I was scheduled to leave. Ok if you don't have a life but, if you have family or children to pick-up it can be very problematic with child care.
