Pros

People I worked with are nice.

Cons

pay Is horrible, no hours, promised as a part-timer 20 hours a week don't even get that, managers play favorites give the people they like hours but, the ones who bust their butts get nothing. No advancement and they work you like slaves for little money. I have over 20 years in Retail and I never seen a company run as bad as this one.

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.
