Pros

Work shifts seem to go by quick when your busy. The guys i worked with were very friendly. Pay was great

Cons

The corporate guys are complete morons, they ran the company into the ground bringing out the black label stuff and nthe other high end merchandise. In select store that would be fine, but smaller areas in the midwest aren't going to sell $550 peices of luggage. (for 1 peice)
