Business Outlook

Pros

If you work in the restaurants or the cafe section, you'll be making tips unlike the stockers or cashiers. They give you benefits, but for a price. You can be hired easily.

Cons

You can apply to be a graphic designer for the company and end up as a waiter. Management doesn't actually care about you and will manipulate you in any way to keep you around and working more than you wish to. Tips go dry after holidays and the summer. Coworkers are children who love drama and steal tips from under the managers nose. Fruit flies everywhere. You won't have your own life when they start scheduling you to come in 11 days straight for 9-10 hours.
