Pros

Was for the most part easy to get days off if you need to.

Cons

No company discount. I think its gross to have to clean the restroom then go ring customers up I don't care I can wash my hands a million times and to me its nasty. Hated when people didn't show up countless times you was left pulling double shifts or it looked bad on you and not the actual person that called out. I worked as a cashier service lead and office assistant and trained people. Very annoyed when I would hear cashiers complain they are only making 8.50 a hr but yet I do more and have been there for 4 years and make 7.75 no raises in 4 years is why I left that place. I can't think of how much i lost in raise pay that I should have got in 4 years. No advancements unless you where a kiss butt or was pretty might just be my sexist store manager.

Pros

They (management) can be reasonable at times, such as with your breaks and scheduling.

Cons

My current management isn't giving me enough hours to be even decently sustainable, yet they have open-shifts available that they could assign to anyone, so why not give those hours to people who are severely underscheduled? If you want your workers to work for you, treat them right and compensate them fairly, and stop expecting them to come in everytime you text them just because someone else called out, maybe you need to give the people who constantly call out less hours because they aren't being reliable, and you need to give more hours to the people who do come to work and get things done, because they've proven to be reliable and willing to come in on their assigned days.
