Pros

flexable schedule for college students. good pay if you make it to journeyman. work life balance for backstage employees is good.

Cons

only 15% of employees get 40 hrs. In many stores and in upper management, promotion is based on political games instead of skill. Only 20% of stores can reach bonus targets and even then sometimes the target is moved up with most of the year gone. Work life balance for in store management is non existant.
