Pros

Some of the colleagues were quite cool. I felt good learning about the industry and the sales process from their experience.

Cons

The management sets high expectations from each employee. However, the level of respect they show to the employees is quite low. I needed both respect and better pay, so I switched jobs. It was great that I did.

Pros

The team itself was solid, and the store's a genuinely nice place to work day-to-day.

Cons

The compensation is just not aligned with what you're actually doing. You're running a shift, working register, dealing with customers, training people, managing closings - and all of it's on a cashier's wage. I actually did the math once and it came out to about $17/hour when you factor in everything. The store charges premium prices and does well financially, but shift leads don't see any of that reflected in their pay. That gap is unsustainable, and it's exactly why I left.
