Pros

It's a job if you absolutely need one

Cons

My co-workers and I call it SLAVERS because they are going to try to work your tail off as hard as they can and pay you as little as they can. They will tell you how much they appreciate your work and that you have the potential to go above and beyond, that you are management material. However your minimum wage checks will net reflect this. For months I went in day after day giving them 110% only to come in the next day to have to do it all over again.

Pros

Employee discount and benefits. Nothing more.

Cons

Many at corporate have a work history at Pepsi or other non related company. They seem to often make policies that are non-sensical, just to make a name for themselves. The production numbers are physically impossible to attain. The termination process for a team member is by-the-book yet they'll let a Store Manager go without notice or reason. I felt if I gave my blood it would not be enough. Although the company "gives back" they are EXTREMELY profitable, paying non-profits pennies(~ .09 -.12) per pound for what the store receives. ALSO, they DON'T "give" unsold good to 3rd world countries - they SELL them. $25 million profit in 2009 from this.

Pros

It's easy to go from a retail associate to assistant manager if you work hard and show good customer service.

Cons

Savers workplaces are often dirty. At the branch I worked at there was high turnover. The pay is not great.
