Pros

Expectations are made clear for employees. Some insurance is available. Good for students or those who want part-time income. Most of the customers are nice.

Cons

Constantly cleaning up after shop-lifters. Rude behavior by store managers. Gossip abound. Everyone is talking about everyone, and it gets old quickly. Pay is not worth the amount of actual work done. Some expectations are not feasible. Management often plays favorites, when enforcing rules and expectations.
