Pros

Easy to request time off Convenient online scheduling The chance to become close to regular customers Occasional gratis (free stuff) Flexibility with coupons

Cons

Poorly trained management Managers never offer praise Managers punish you for small mistakes All of the hours went to managers and sales leads I was never allowed breaks, even after 8 hour shifts Coworkers were catty Management played favorites I wasn't treated like a human being.

Pros

Real customer experience Ability to move up within company Always new products Free trial sizes when new products come in Fun, competitive place to work Contests and prizes to help associates better themselves A great "team" feeling within the store Floorsets are extremely challenging, yet fun, and are another way to pick up hours

Cons

As an associate hours can be hard to come by, the more open your availability and the harder you work, and show that you are a good worker, the more hours you're likely to receive.
