Pros

- Founded by a great man with great beliefs - Treat their employees well -- you can get benefits as part time - Always shifts to pick up - Eligible for a raise every 6 months

Cons

- Pay isn't that great starting out - It doesn't matter if you have a legitimate reason or not for being late, late is late; and 5 minutes or 2 hours, they both count equally against you - Some of the things they let customers get away with is outrageous

Pros

Nice people all around. Depending on your store mangers can be either very helpful or highly annoying.

Cons

the worst place to work is customer service if you are not a full time employee. Tons of work for very little pay. The highest raise you can earn each six month period is $.25. And the scheduling is awful. Many of the full time employee gets favored by management. Part-time employees end up doing the most amount of work while only working 10-15 hours a week.
