Pros

Pay rate is much better than average retail jobs.

Cons

The store manager has literally insulted every member of the staff. He verbally belittles us, calling us slow and stupid. He intimidates us not to take breaks. He schedules us for 12hr days with only a 30min lunch. No amount of money is worth what the employees at store #191 are having to endure. I literally went from loving my job to hating my job in one day when the current store manager took over our store. He is an unrelenting task master who puts so much on everyone that some of the staff leave in tears most days. He has treated the stockmen with such disdain that many have just left. He has refused to give people vacation time when the previous manager gave them the okay even if the vacation was paid and nonrefundable. The manager at this store cares about one thing, himself. He came to this store assuming we were idiots from the very beginning.

Pros

Stress Free Job, AWESOME Management. They work with your schedule. I absolutely love working there.

Cons

Only thing I can say is just need more hours and wish they gave raises yearly, other than that it's a great place to work.
