Business outlook
Pros
Flexibility and the ability to request time off (within reason) online from home.
Cons
Does not pay a living wage and never schedules a full 40-hour work week, which means store is chronically and critically understaffed. Merchandise amasses in the stockroom, due to lack of associates available to move it to the floor. (You can't sell a product if customers don't know you have it or if you can't find it in the piles of boxes in the stockroom. This leads to "phantom stock-outs" and lost sales.) Training is a joke, with emphasis on how to be nice rather than how to competently do your job. There is a lot of video-only training that doesn't allow interaction. On-the-job training is truncated due to understaffing.
