Pros

Easy job if the managers like you. There is a big game of favorites. At the end of the day, it is a retail position so if people annoy you, look elsewhere.

Cons

Terrible job if the managers don't like you. They will never fire you (seen it from other employees), if they want to get rid of you, your hours will slowly be cut back until they have you work one four hour shift a month. It is their slimey way of making sure you do not get to file for unemployment.

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.
