Pros

Working with customers and learning about products. Fast past environment with lots of things to do. Also having great co-workers made the job fun. My location co-workers was like a family...really looked out for another especially during busy times such as back to school.

Cons

Not enough hours and advancement can take forever if there is any room for you. Hourly pay is not that great. Management can stress you out for sales goals and there isn't much rewards for doing so which can leave you feeling uninspired.

Pros

-Great hours, but the often drift into unpaid over time with no appreciation for hard work or department needs. -Critical thinking and technical skills merge well with artistic inspiration. -Creating quality, important products and seeing a customer truly please with what you've created for them.

Cons

-Management is inexperienced and uncompromising in their unrealistic demands -Adds unneeded stress and unwelcome input in areas where they are inexperienced and detrimental in their attempts to solve a problem. -Management is cutthroat and deceitful in pursuit of furthering their own success -Will cut an associate loose rather than assist them in correcting the mistakes they have made.

Pros

Managers were cool and friendly, willing to work with schedule. Minors and adults are given specific timed breaks which is nice. Cashier or floor jobs are alright.

Cons

Pay was way too low for the stress and amount of things to do. Was paid $8 hourly, and I wouldn't take the job back for $11 an hour. Trained for the copy and print center. All it was was a bunch of boring CD's that did not teach me enough. I only got two days on the floor training in the copy and print center and the girl was way to busy to show me anything, and had been there so long she didn't really know how to teach the ways. On my first day by myself in the print center I got so stressed out I got physically sick. There is WAY TOO MUCH to do and learn for just one person. And copy and print center does the fedex. It was really hard not knowing how to do anything and I had people coming in with important documents like master thesis', wedding invitations, business cards, huge blueprints- I was terrified to mess up these people's things. It was extremely stressful.
