Pros

Above all else I enjoyed the atmosphere of the store. The smell of old books and dust.

Cons

I was displeased with many interactions I had with other employees and especially customers who did not want to accept their buy quotes. However what really made the job unbearable was having to stand for so long. I have a bad back and the end of each day was excrutiating to the point that I could not take care of home life.

Pros

Great coworkers. Get quarterly bonus checks. Not a super hard job.

Cons

Mangement is kinda iffy and they really require you to do a lot more work than you're paid for.
