A Great Place to Start - Bookseller I Half Price Books Employee Review

Pros

You're surrounded by books, games, comics, and media of all sorts-- if you're in to anything, chances are you can find it at your Half Price. Furthermore, you get a nice discount, making Half Price even more affordable. As far as retail jobs go, you are rewarded fairly well at Half Price. You have insurance options, profit share, and 401K, even as a Bookseller I. The hourly wage is a bit low, but they just recently raised it a bit, and you are automatically up for a raise after a certain passage of time.

Cons

Starting wages a bit low, but that's to be expected. Customers can be unreasonable, but the management is typically adept at resolving these issues with you.

Pros

Great coworkers. Get quarterly bonus checks. Not a super hard job.

Cons

Mangement is kinda iffy and they really require you to do a lot more work than you're paid for.
