      Pros

      great employee discount. flexible scheduling Many customers are very nice and courteous to sales associates. Not much actual work required

      Cons

      pay. I had worked for this company for 2 years and gone to special trainings and had never received a raise or recognition for my hard work. You are made aware of how much profit you make the company but do not receive any type of raises or health care benefits. If you start working there part time little chance to move up.

      Pros

      Reasonable starting wage, fair discount if you're into that sort of thing , that's about all the good I can say

      Cons

      Forced to shove warranties and frequent shoppers cards down peoples throats whether they wanted them or not, then were reprimanded if they didn't want them, unclear on job duties, you think your signing on as a cashier when intact you're required to be a naggy salesmen

      Pros

      All in all, it was a good place to work, especially as a student. Manager was nice enough to give me the employee discount after just a week of working there. The people there were nice to work with and working environment was pretty lax as well.

      Cons

      Very disorganized. I had three different seniors/managers that would tell me to do one thing, one after the other, and would get scolded from the first manager, when he returned to see that I was not doing what he had originally told me to do. Then the second manager, then the third. Felt like no matter what you did, you were going to get criticized from somebody.
