Pros
Flexible for the part-time employee Additional weekend pay Yearly bonus if your store is profitable-based on time with the company up to 15% of your income Gain management experience with the manage by walking around philosophy
Cons
As a department manager you are completely married to the job. 52+ hours a week that were required by the store manager (per the contract signed we were committed to 48 hours)—every Friday you must work until noon on your weekend off and be back to work by noon on Monday. Mandatory every other weekend very long hours open to close (Saturday 7 a.m.-10 p.m. Sunday 8 a.m. – 7p.m.) Now this doesn't too bad however, it is retail and absolutely you need time to recharge the customer service battery!
