Pros
Great merchandise/prices, nice co-workers. Customers are mostly happy, so interaction is nice.
Cons
Very little training, but associates are still expected to meet (unknown) standards. Store management "leads" by yelling, belittling, and sarcastic put-downs. Poor managers think this will spur workers to try harder, but it leads to a stressful, hostile workplace. Add to that the highly physical nature of the job and minimum wage, and it's no wonder that the turnover is so high.
