Pros

You can work your way into a management roll fairly quick. The work is not very stressful. The people you work with are pretty awesome. As a student they worked around my hours extremely well. The working conditions were awesome.

Cons

There really isn't many downsides. Just a lot of stocking shelves, and cleaning the meat room. Cleaning everything really. If you don't like blood you probably shouldn't work in the meat department. It could have paid a little better.

Pros

Paid breaks. Can be lazy and get the same pay as a hard worker.

Cons

Your high efforts are not rewarded. Benefits only include the time you put into retail that can be considered experience. Although you have the title for a specific position you will still be forced to complete tasks of another position. Although I was a checker, I was also put on hot food line, samples, cart duty, cleaning bathrooms, cleaning spills, watching self check out, stocking, and many more. Any sense of enjoyment with other coworkers gets shut down quick by management. Availability can be ignored by management. Lots of drama with coworkers. No penalty for inappropriate and unprofessional work. Management cares about business more than employees even though it is “employee owned”.
