Pros
As with any retail position, the satisfaction of providing affordable, quality goods and customer service.
Cons
Minimum wage with 2% annual increase. Benefits are sparse and/or non-existent depending on the position held. Unreliable number of hours from week to week. A history of and present violations of labor laws. Management at both the store and corporate level sweep complaints of associates "under the rug", no support system is in place for employees. A hostile work environment is allowed to exist at the store level. A phone based employee satisfaction survey is often undermined by management using intimidation tactics. I was specifically told by the store manager to give him high remarks because it "affected the store". Also, even though the survey was supposedly anonymous, he told me to call the number ASAP because I was the only employee left who had not completed the survey...? No regard for employee health/illness.
