Pros
Decent employee discount, encouraged to ask questions/research/try products, nice team dynamic (depending on department). My managers are great, I've known people in other departments who were driven to quit by horrible managerial behavior.
Cons
Wage is not competitive (was hired last year at a dollar or so above state minimum, but there was no adjustment when that rate increased...can't be good for employee retention to pay bare minimum), crowds can be ridiculous, at times it seems like there's some interdepartmental warfare, very little store-level control for some operational aspects (have at least one IT person in the store itself so we don't have to deal with a malfunctioning timeclock for a week).
