Pros

Wonderful staff and Manager and Asst. Mgr. Decent discount.

Cons

Negative environment created by micro managing from Corporate. They don't seem to recognize that their success is based on the employees. Credit is not given where it is due. Trusting the maturity of the employees is not an option. The pay is less that adequate

Pros

Staff was friendly and willing to help through the hiring and training process, and tasks were shared evenly

Cons

Management implements rules that harm the flow of sales and make for terrible checkout lines. Scheduling was always done last minute and it was impossible have a stable work schedule due to last minute changes and no stable scheduling duties for managers
