Pros

I love my job. I love what I do. Simple enough.

Cons

I hate it how I can never get hours. I have worked here for 7 months now and I can't get more than 6 hours a week. People who are recently hired get more hours than me and a longer shift. My Manager always is telling my how good of a job I do, I do double at least in sales a week than my goal is. Yet, he works newly hired people more that can not even change a battery! All the new and older people do is stand around and talk, while I go and greet customers and straighten up the place and stock. My Manager has even told me that he is glad that I do that since the other people talk like they haven't seen each other in years.

A lot of schedule flexibility

There is a lot of favoritism/bad management, especially in the DC that I work in. (DC-41)

Pros

It’s a pretty easy job, very fun people to work with. Hours as a driver are pretty consistent.

Cons

The pay isn’t great. It would be nice if the drivers were making at least $17 or $18 an hour. Also benefits don’t extend to health insurance only dental and vision if you are only considered part-time. Anybody that isn’t the GM, CPP, and RPP are considered part-time, regardless of the hours you get.
