Pros

Company offers a great 30% discount programs for associate with some exceptions and typically are very flexible with employees schedules rather do to school or family issues.

Cons

Like every company, Job Lot doesn't like to pay their employees and try to cut costs at every opportunity. This has been even more present with the recent hours change a company that used to be all about family seems to care more about the top brass and their bottom line rather than the life of their employees with employee work-life balance going down the drain with aggressive hour cuts and changes forcing employees to either quit or pick up 2nd and 3rd jobs to support their families.
