Pros

You will at the very least have a job. Whether you sexually harass others, make violent threats, come in intoxicated, call off constantly or don't even call off at all. You will somehow still have a job at GIANT.

Cons

Company culture is a ruse and really just centered around profits over people like any other business, but they will hammer it into you with propaganda television in the break rooms, various fliers, meetings. Management is never on the same page. Pay is pretty terrible unless you're a department manager or salaried. Salaried staff spends most of their time on their cell phone in the office. Very little accountability applied selectively. Management actively talks behind employees backs and calls them various insults to seemingly random members of the team fairly often. A true misery to walk in the door each day.

Decent Job, Wouldn't Recommend for a Career Path.

Pros

Management is (usually) willing to work with your availability. I've made good friends over the years working with this company. Pay is weekly and you can cash your checks at work on the spot if you don't want to use direct deposit. Most labor is pretty mindless with this company unless you move into a managerial position.

Cons

Management will often try to work associates to death by telling them there could be a promotion in it for them if they go the extra mile. More often than not, this is not the case. Moving up with this company is usually a popularity contest. It's generally only possible to receive a promotion if you're willing to throw away whatever personal life you have in order to get it. The hours are long, and they work you hard. If you slack off at all, management will usually cut your hours. It's generally not worth what nickels and dimes they give you in return.
