Pros

Better than average part time pay and generally they were fairly flexible with my school schedule, I also got a company matched 401k and paid vacation time each year. Overall a pretty good job.

Cons

Very small staff in each store makes it difficult to call out sick if you need to as it places a great strain on those who are working. Also for the pay they expect a lot more out of you than most and you only get one raise a year which isn't much. I have worked for four years and I started at $10.50 and I just now got a decent raise to 11.80 because I took on more reasonability and became a key holder. They really work you to the bone when you are on the lower tier.

Pros

Good exposure to new technologies. Ample room to grow in terms of deploying initiatives internationally. Very difficult to be fired. Lots of opportunity to work without supervision.

Cons

Below average benefit package. Average salaries. Little room for decisions. Management has little to no experience on international deployments which result in mismanaged projects. A lot of emphasis on caring for the employees but there is little effort by the company to actually implement this message.

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.
