Pros

Headline speaks for itself, from the workers to management and all around the tasks you do at the store was definitely the top place I ever worked for in my years in retail. Every hour you're always tasked with a different section or spending the hour at the register. Miss those days but it made me who I am as an individual today!

Cons

Some tasks can feel monotonous, repetitive, etc. Other than that there's nothing to based on my experience with the company I have bad to say about.
