Pros

Great benefits and fun environment. Constantly changing to stay ahead of the rest makes work a challenge everyday. Never boring! Job environment depends a lot on the individual store management. Most of the managers are great and willing to work with you when you need things like time off for family issues or health reasons.

Cons

Sometimes long and strange shifts but that is retail. Management teams not always on track and tend to micro-manage too much. Need better training programs. Too many early morning meetings that are not productive.

Pros

No Need to sell or deal with customers (Much) Constantly moving so you always have a task to do Management leaves you to your own devices Almost all warehouse employees have a set of headphone

Cons

Everyone (Cust & employees) Expect an encyclopedic knowledge on where every single item is. Management seems to think we can lift a 85" tv, pull a washer off the top shelf, stock gaming shelves, and handle store pick up at the same moment. Customers think we don't want to help them when we call someone else to help with sales There's almost too much to do and even though we may have 1-3 employees working at a time, 1 is at the door, 1 is behind store pick up, which leaves 1 employee to handle new orders, deliveries, and down stocking.
