Pros

The people you work with. I made true friends that I will always socialize with. The customer base is much better, it is amazing how well the membership fee weeds out the undesirables that the other side of the company is so well known for.

Cons

The company is using the tough job market to be able to take away benefits and push their associates harder than they would other wise take with out leaving for another position. I was with the company for more than a decade and they no longer show any sense of loyalty to the people who run the day to day operations. There is a constant threat of loss of job to meet every goal no mater how large or small.

Pros

Exemplary co-workers, they will do all they can to help you. Some managers are more lenient than others. You get real-life skills and knowledge on how all department stores work.

Cons

-Tough hours, you get told 3pm-10:30pm, but it usually means 3pm-1am or maybe even 2 am. -Frantic work-pace if you work grocery department, it may leave you dizzy if you are not prepared for the workload. -Other departments may ask for help from Grocery department but they usually don't help us. The exception is produce, every once in a while.
