Pros

Like-minded co-workers Decent discount (25% on apparel, 10% on hardline goods) Opportunity to work with equipment YOU enjoy Get some decent customers

Cons

Understaffed almost constantly (you will have to cover other departments) Incompetent co-workers and management at times High turnover rate Pay isn't fantastic (fight for your wage, they WILL try to screw you) Understandably rude customers due to lack of inventory, long lines at checkout, etc., etc. Apathetic co-workers, especially in college towns No clear goals (management was changing constantly) Opaque management

Pros

- Unlimited PTO with 401k match is awesome

Cons

- Performance expectations were often unclear or inconsistently communicated, Feedback was reactive instead of timely and actionable. - Leadership quality varied dramatically by manager, with limited coaching or mentorship. - Constant shifting priorities without adjusting expectations or workload. - Psychological safety was lacking, Honest communication feel risky. - Leadership messaging around culture didn't match day-to-day reality. - Process was often valued more than impact or results. - Compensation well below market, w/little flexibility during negotiations. - I felt excluded from key conversations and opportunities that were important to my success.
