Pros

Having a good team behind you is super helpful when meeting deadlines. I was able to get my job done well and on time because I could rely on everyone else to take care of their duties.

Cons

I ended up training people and helping out at another store part-time because they did not have a cohesive team managing the space, so it was incredibly difficult for their Inventory Specialist to stay on top of everything.
