Not the worst - Shift Leader Half Price Books Employee Review

Pros

Working with books is great, and a lot of the coworkers are smart, hilarious weirdos. In 2018, health insurance was decent.

Cons

It’s still corporate. One-size-fits-all policies applied with no flexibility or consideration of circumstances/tenure. Extremely low pay—not a living wage in many cities, even in a supervisory position. HR exists to protect the company, not its employees.

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.
