Pros

It’s a relatively easy job the actual work, and the people are rlly nice bc they hire according to personality so they look for naturally friendly positive and nice people. Most of the managers care about crew and take our feedback rlly well. We also get automatic biannual reviews with a chance for a wage increase which is rlly nice.

Cons

Still a corporation. There are new standardizations going in place that are kind of stamping out my stores individuality

Pros

-Great way to meet people, socialize, and learn customer service -Always tasked with different things every hour -Friendly crew who will always help you to learn and get better at your job -Get a slight pay raise every 6 months -No outside commitments and amazing benefits if you work full time (about 28 hours a week for every 6 months) -Will take time, but find your friend group, stay with them and have fun, you can't please everybody -Care for your body, do not overdo it with physical labor, its a retail job and you only have one fragile body for yourself, get help or insist about your pains

Cons

-Not many, unless you are stuck in a bad store with bad management -I had some good luck of working in 3 great stores, so YMMV -Sometimes can get cliquey like you are back in high school -Getting promoted up to store management may involve buttering up and being a "yes-person" -Care for your body, do not overdo it with physical labor, its a retail job and you only have one fragile body for yourself, get help or insist about your pains
