Pros

offers some flexibility around schedule-especially for students...they are more interested in evening and weekend availability

Cons

Hired specifically based on certain availability... after working there for 5 years, they wanted documentation or proof of my school schedule before giving me hours...and threatened to not give me hours unless i opened up my availability even though it was agreed upon.

Pros

Good full-time benefits, flexible scheduling. But the cons are starting to outweigh the good.

Cons

A new store manager took over the Massapequa Park location (Long Island, NY) and the workplace culture has become highly challenging since. Her management style is overly critical, and she makes harsh, rapid judgments without taking the time to know her associates or understand their roles. Furthermore, she does not lead by example, and she sets unrealistic expectations without providing regular check-ins or continuous coaching. This has left the staff feeling unsupported and neglected. There is also a strong perception that loyal employees hours are being unfairly cut or even terminated to reduce store costs rather than supporting the well-being and retention of the staff.
