Pros

$15 an hr. The employee discount. The products that they sell. They have many things that are useful to the common household which is great when buying on sale with the employee discount.

Cons

Management is very irresponsible. They can never get anything right from scheduling to minor requests from employees regarding anything. Most of the time these will be formal requests that are done to the company's requirements but the management will not only fail to honor them but they will also come up with a reason that is irrelevant as to why the can't make your request happen. This then leads you to have to make your own accommodations to make everyone happy when you originally made the request in advanced to aboid any issues. They will give the world to someone who brown-noses while the employees who mind their business and work hard dont't even get any recognition. There are employees who will be morally and ethically wrong but for those employees as long as they are buddying up to the managers they will get whatever they want. I have worked retail for a very long time and have never seen practices so unorthodox within such a company. Oh and they will throw 'christian values' around all day but the only good reason they use that for is to be closed on Sunday.
