Pros

The employee discount is very generous, as is the chance to work in a really cool thrift environment.

Cons

Managers tell you that they will give you all the tools to succeed but set you up for failure instead

Pros

Some good employees but they aren't living up to their full potential. There do seem to be career opportunities if you're willing to play the game.

Cons

From the moment I walked in, I was put to work. No team welcome, lunch, or anything. That should have been my first sign of a poorly managed work place that doesn't care about their employees. There's definitely a poor work-life balance as I was forced to choose between family and pay while dealing with passive-aggressive micro-management. This is what I would imagined working for Wal-Mart would be like but what would you expect based off a corporate business model that profits off of other's castaways. There's definitely a lot of smoke and mirrors while you're being recruited. They do provide benefits...3 FULL months after working there and until then you're not considered a human being. In the end, I'm almost positive they broke employment laws but I just wanted out. Don't worry about exit interviews because they simply don't care.

Moral plummets as quotas rise.

Pros

Employee discount (when you can afford to shop) is excellent. Work with a variety of people from different backgrounds. Get to know regular customers and are able to joke around with them.

Cons

The quotas are astronomical, they expect one person to work their butt off and heaven help you if you get some help ( the quota almost doubles. Management is in sense a puppet factory ( absolutely no individuality or thinking for themselves)... I've heard the exact same instructions word for word from 4 different managers. It can be a challenge to say the least.
