Pros

Quirky, unique people work here which can make for great friendships. The pay and benefits are better than most retail chains. First dibs on new material. Very flexible with shift changes and requests for time off.

Cons

They don't know how to handle sexual harassment and rarely fire people who ANYWHERE ELSE would boot. Their technology is outdated and they are going to continue to have issues staying viable in the book world unless they change.

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.
