Pros

Great staff before they were all disposed of , fair pay for retail before getting a pay cut due to COVID-19, interesting merchandise overall

Cons

Company laid off most of the staff, employees directed to severely underpay customers for product expecting most people to either not notice or accept the pandemic as an excuse that we can’t afford to pay as much. In my opinion, we were lowballing even before the pandemic.

Pros

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

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