Pros

The pay is reasonable and quarterly bonuses can be a nice infusion for the people living paycheck to paycheck. There is a lot of room for advancement and constant openings. The work can be challenging at times. The attendance policy is very lenient, up to 8 absences every 6 months.

Cons

The company has a bad track record of cronyism and favoritism when it comes to promotions that matter. It's not a feeling, it's a verified truth. That favoritism promotes unethical behavior that benefits only certain people, including myself, such as altering attendance records and excusing drug use. They don't train...like at all. Training for a job could be as little as 2 or 3 hours of shadowing someone. They have a long public reputation for keeping people long after they should, people that can't handle the job and put more work onto others. They have rampant understaffing issues even though many stores have a 10-12% payroll budget and will hire anyone with a pulse.

Pros

It is a good company to gain retail experience. This is a great job for a young person that does not need much money. If you are looking for a temporary "job" just for money, it is easy to find work here. There are possibilities for advancement if you make the right friends.

Cons

Hard work and valid job skills mean nothing if you do not "know" someone. Management seems to be trained to treat employees poorly as a "standard operating procedure". You can put out double the productivity of co-workers, and your yearly evaluation will not reflect it. You can work full-time and still qualify for, and need, food stamps and other public assistance to feed your family. People who work hard are treated poorly while poor workers have an easy time. I have never been treated so poorly at any company I have worked for in my entire life.
