Pros

Flexible hours Requesting time off is simple and usually given Co-workers are great to work with Most of the managers are nice and friendly Get to know regular customers

Cons

You will be making minimum wage for endless and difficult work As a courtesy clerk, your basically the managers errand boy The company is cheap when it comes to upgrades and staffing Extremely understaffed with the bare minimum on duty Annoying emphasis on service has you reading a script to every customer Old and uncomfortable dress code Given so many countless and mundane tasks that it was impossible to get the work that I was hired for done. Managers are given so many tasks from corporate that they have no time to listen to employees or run the store Old and outdated equipment that constantly breaks
