Pros

$10 an hour starting out and a 56 hour work week. Over time- time & a half after 40 hours.

Cons

Long shifts. Rude customers. Violent customers. Inexperienced managers. Dangerous. No janitor or cleaning crew. Incompetent managers. Disorganized. Filthy. No customer service. Horrible employee value. Strict policies. Lack of communication between managers and employees. Managers rude to customers: Customers spread feces on bathroom walls and mirrors. Customers left dirty diapers in multiple departments. Customers would urinate on products and bathroom walls. Improper protection for when using dangerous cleaning solvents. Many safety violations. Fire-code violations. Couldn't have water or any drink at registers- Led to dehydration in many employees. Couldn't use restroom when needed- Caused a co-workers baby development and growth to slow as well as many bladder infections. Too much product coming in and not enough shelves to put it on. Unrealistic expectations. No health benefits. No 401k. Once you leave you can never be hired there again.

Pros

Great Customers and coworkers. The products we affordable and great quality and I loved doing the visual Merchandising changes for the wall decor and home organizations. We really had a great team we provided great customer service and the local real estate loved coming in for assistance

Cons

The miscommunication between the upper management and the store level management wavered. We went over 8 months without a Store Director. High labor demands and lack of support led to a high turnover rate and a toxic work environment. Pay isn't commensurate with responsibilities.
