Pros

Job is on Campus Coworkers were mostly a great group of people Free meal every shift over 6 hours

Cons

Everything inside the stores is outrageously overpriced, even though their target audience is broke college students. Management is terrible and continually introduced more and more rules that made absolutely no sense. Originally, this job was somewhere that you could work on homework as a student, as long as you were attentive to any customers that might be in the store, but by the time I left, I was worried to even have a book there to read on slow days. Management would also consistently get the schedules completely wrong, even if you have had the same availabilty forever. Management would consistently be shuffling people around to different locations for no reason. Did I say that the management was terrible?

Pros

Travel opportunities. Former corporate management was extremely supportive and good to work with. Free food. Free drama.

Cons

Work life balance. Don’t be a mother to young children if you want to work here. Verbal communication vs. what you get in an email will be contradictory….the gaslighting was unbelievable. Digital metric systems put in place by new corporate management has taken all the creativity and actual management out of the job. Will be mad at you if you don’t make the numbers they want to see, but will provide zero guidance on how best to do so. Hours were extremely long in order to complete all job responsibilities. New upper management is inflexible to specific account needs. Each account is different. HR does not help you - they protect the company. If you need to terminate an employee - they make it impossible.
