Pros

Being open 7 days a week, it makes it easy to schedule appointments or vacations without using much time.

Cons

Once you are in a retail store, you can only work within a retail store. You will work 14 hour days with no break, help, or ability to go get lunch. There is no concern for work life balance. You might get stuck with Mondays and Thursdays off. If someone calls out, you will have to work. If you are sick, you still have to go in until they could find someone to cover. If there is a blizzard, you will still be required to open the store, even in a state of emergency. Depending on your manager, you may also be forced into unethical situations.

Pros

Very good training when starting out. They make you feel very important.

Cons

Long hours, open on weekends with little to no staff. Unrealistic goals and budgets are unattainable. Bad review if you do not reach budgets.

Pros

Pretty nice salary, laid back atmosphere, can advance pretty quickly if you do your job well, fun teams

Cons

Sexual harassment issues if you are a female (although once a complaint is made they handle the situation pretty quickly), customers that bring in a lot of business are allowed to treat you as poorly as they choose, many more hours than what they tell you.
