Pros

People I worked with. All are a family. We tried to stick together. Wages weren't that bad but considering the work we did could have been better.

Cons

This SM doesn't have a clue how to run a store. Used to be a chairmans award winner all the time. Sits in office all day and never on the floor. When on the floor doesn't know what is going on. Does not have a clue how to run a store except into the ground. Only got the job because of who knows who.

Pros

If you like working early morning hours and getting off early in the afternoon (which I do) this is a great part-time job. I was a college student when I worked here so it worked perfectly with my schedule. The pay is pretty decent and the people you work with are friendly.

Cons

Only real downside is that it's retail. You're going to run into some rude customers from time to time. There's always work to do and not enough time given to do it sometimes. But as long as you work hard and managers see that you're trying your best there isn't too much pressure put on you.
