Pros

10% discount. You get first pick on items getting clearanced out. 6th month review allows for hourly raises. Student opportunity for scholarships after working for a certain period of time.

There are regional monthly sales goals contests that have awesome rewards for the break room.

Cons

Sometimes, I didn't get as many hours as I wanted, I would always still get at least 15 though.
