      Pros

      The only positive thing I can say about this company is the people you work the floor with are your best support.

      Cons

      There is no training at all for any position you work, you are thrown in and told to figure it out. When you ask for help its typically met with oh I dont know about that, or youre told to find it in the SOP which is like reading another language. Also dont expect to be paid a living wage here, a store that does almost $40million a year and they can't pay a fair wage to its employees.

      Great coworkers and management, but corporate screws them over a bit.

      Pros

      Coworkers are mostly great and management just switched to a much better GM by bringing back Ken. Managers are mostly solid. Employee discount is really good, and the health/dental/vision plans are worthwhile. The clientele is decent for a mall store. Some of the mall food court stores give you a 10% discount. Schedules are flexible.

      Cons

      You are expected to be partly a credit card salesman (though the Club card is genuinely a decent store credit card, the focus on it can be surprising if you haven't experienced it before). Half of the handhelds are constantly broken (earphone jack and mobile pay especially). Corporate is stingy on hours. Inventory system runs off of a positively ancient and not well-optimized program. It's attached to a mall, which means theft gets crazy. Very few truly full-time positions are available. Pay is a bit low, and the yearly assessment raises are small.
