Pros

Many very hard working people

Cons

Job always feels threatened. Everyday we're scrambling as fast as we can afraid of infractions. Many people at my work have been getting sick from each other because they are afraid to take a day off. One person came into work sick and now 4 of their co-workers got sick. Three family members of those co-workers got sick as well, two of them being children. (I'm sure more have gotten sick that i don't know of). Two of my coworkers called in the night before to take the day off because their kids were sick, they then received infractions.....FOR TAKING A SICK DAY!!! I myself got sick and had to go to work with a fever of 103 F, when the night before i had night sweats that soaked my sheets and kept vomiting blood. My family wanted me to go to the hospital....but how can I? I couldn't afford loosing my job and then having to pay medical bills.....

Everything was a pro. That place was awesome to work for!

Cons

The only con is that is no longer a store in our community. Sadly, it went out of business.
