Pros

The compensation was favorable compared to other large retailers. They promote heavily from within, and given the right group of managers, you can move up fairly quickly.

Cons

Family coverage on the insurance plan was about $900 per month, which is very high. The training they have in place is good. However, they have a tendency to throw you to the wolves and then train you later when time allows.

Pros

- Health benefits for part timers. None too shabby for vision and dental, though medical is quite expensive for the coverage you get. - Fairly flexible in terms of availability - Cashiers get lots of hours, when compared relatively to part time sales associates

Cons

- Mandates per corporate, things that must be done and there is no "if ands or buts" about it, which is a problem when there are situations requiring flexibility. - Difficult for cashiers to get significantly higher pay, since we start well below those of sales associates - Rarely get the opportunity to PK into other departments
