Pros

Five Below is an awesome place to work for depending on the people you get to work with. I have been blessed to work with a great team . We have fun and get to share great ideals on how we can better the store and overall just be able to create a great work environment.

Cons

The challenges working at Five below is that you have to manage your time wisely and your discount is not that much off the products. Plus you get paid $7.40 an hour, which I feel you should get paid more due to the work you do at five below.

Pros

-20% discount -med, dental, vision benefits -20-ish minimum hours per week -genuinely can be a fun store to work in when run well

Cons

-store managers have little to no oversight and cross professional boundaries often - hr is ineffective, document everything yourself, report to the EEOC -growth opportunities in the store are very limited and they will lowball you no matter what you do or sacrifice -crazy turnover because the expectations are unrealistic store managers lie about pay budget to everyone -more likely to hire teens and students because they are easier to take advantage of for little pay, only needs adult for when teens and students cannot work (night shifts, school days) - nearby stores, especially if in a strip mall or shopping center, like tj maxx have higher base pay, better benefits, better security, and more hour availability
