Pros

It's a paying job but management thinks employees are machines.

Cons

Not a suitable job for young family, union is weak, workload is modern day slavery, managements likes to micromanage, 12 point system is a joke, positions are now capped out at like $9.00-$12.00 range (so you can't keep getting pay raises the linger you stay-this went out about 2001 I believe).

Pros

Direct coworkers were great to work with. I also enjoyed being left to do my work and not babysat by management.

Cons

Management doesn't know what they are doing. Resets and floor plans were regularly not done properly. The store I worked at has a skeleton crew so I never got help (but was expected to stop everything I'm going to go help other departments/areas). Also meaning good luck to any customers needing help, especially when I was the only person working my area of the store, so when I wasn't there, no one was. Management also regularly disappeared into the offices or were on vacation. Also was terminated for reasons outside my control even though I was told they look at the reasons for attendance incidents before termination. Never got to get the FMLA or accommodation to my doctors before being terminated two days after I requested them. Didn't bother asking for a raise either. I did multiple times and got nothing.
