Pros

Every now and then you'll have a child of family come in that puts a smile on your face, and moving up in your store is not that hard.

Cons

The turn over rate is horrible, Iv'e been there two yeas and I can't even begin to count how many people have quit or been fired. People call out on a regular basis and so management rely on the few competent people who have been there awhile to pick up there slack. If you make the slightest mistake or any one in management gets gets angry with you, they do things like schedule you for 1 day. Not to worry though because they will just guilt trip you into taking someones shift who called out. Oh and if you open, you run the risk of the opening manager coming late. This has also happen to me more times than I can count; the longest time being an hour and 20 minutes late. And you can't leave, you have to wait for them to come. But vice versa, if you're 5 minutes late just once, due to the bus, you get yelled at. Oh and the Chuck E suit is only as clean as your coworkers are, that being said, it's gross. Don't expect to take a break either. If your over 18 they won't give you a break, and if you ask for one it's an all out war to where you have to bring up labor laws to get it.
