Pros

Great company to work for, its going places. Recognizes those that work hard, and takes action against those that dont. Pretty straight forward.

Cons

Customers can be a pain, very demanding.

Pros

The work, for the most part, was rather simple... just scan customer's purchases and try to appear friendly. Self explanatory, really.

Cons

Depending on the season and time of day the store can become insanely busy.. that means long lines, and more stress on the cashiers..especially if a product is missing a price tag.. I was also working 40 hours + per week, however I was listed as part time, so when I did have OT I had to cut it by taking an extra long lunch break.. it would have been much cooler if they simply compensated me for the OT, or had me cut it at the end of the day rather than forcing me to take an awkward 3 hour break in the middle of the day but arghhh..what are you going to do? Minimum wage slave.
