Pros

Friendly work environment (coworkers), very Lgbtq friendly, store is organized by call numbers, safety is a big concern to management (a good thing)

Cons

Lackluster beginner training, busy and very crowded store, freezing back/stockroom, lack of organization/direction by management, understaffed, pays minimum wage in your state and nothing more, scheduling is not the best, and back room is always overflowing with stock.

Pros

My coworkers and a steady wpaycheck. And meeting some great people. The discount is nice.

Cons

This company likes to put all the work on its associates. Anything that’s grunt work or where you have to get your hands dirty. All they care about are pushing out those credit cards. I’ve seen some of the best employees quit because they’re burnt out and don’t get scheduled any hours. I don’t blame them. I’m looking for another job as I type this. My body hurts and I’m being abused physically and taken advantage of.
