It started as just a job and turned into a career.

Pros

Benefits, including insurance, stock, and 401k. 10% discount helps more than you realize, especially when you have to shop for kids. Experienced over the last 11 years and great overall working environment.

Cons

The company is constantly changing, although most of the time this is for the better, for a while the changes appeared to be going in the wrong direction, currently we are heading "back to the basics" returning to the "old" way of things with a twist of new blended in.

Pros

So that one has a job to earn money at benefits are available to workers that are hired to work full time.

Cons

The down sides are the new associates to the company are not giving the older workers an opportunity to be sucessful.

Pros

A lot of opportunities to hone your problem solving skills. No boring down time. You can learn at least the basics of many different departments.

Cons

The management team did not support each other, this caused a lot of confusion with the employees. Very little follow through with the upper management, unless there was a surprise visit by the (big wigs). I asked my store manager that constructive criticism was a learning tool when hourly employees got coached, yet it was a bad thing when the management team received it from the district office or higher. It was always an emergency when the corporate office was doing a surprise inspection.
