Pros

They offer discount and good benefits

Cons

You are expected to do absolutely everything...sales, management, loss prevention, resets, planograms, training, janitor, register, etc. There is no balance of family and work. Sales goals are insane, there are so many and they are constantly adding more! Much more negative feedback than positive, even when positive is given it is destroyed with all the negative. No respect from upper management and very micromanaged. You are treated like a child and made to feel incompetent. Very discouraging place to work, wears you down physically, mentally and emotionally! Not enough clerical hours for part time and turnover rate is the highest I've ever seen because of the demands. If someone quits or doesn't show there is no one to cover except manager yet you are never supposed to go into overtime.

Pros

Generous discount, flexible hours, laidback

Cons

Colleagues will often fall to their lack of thorough training and lack of pay. Career progression is also a dead end when you hit store manager unless you want to give 5-10 years of your life to the company for hardly any pay.
