Pros

Love my fellow associates. Occasional parties and food!

Cons

Ooh ...where to start. Was basically harassed to step out of one position for another coordinator position because "they really needed me out there"'agreed to do it. New manager came in and bright along a side kick with her who wanted my position...so tadah!!! I was forced to step down...and promised at least 20 hours a week. I am still doing the work for both positions....running tanks....moves...cash office....and did I mention they took away the extra dollar I was making??? There are way too many instances of people being singled out and others getting away with practically murder. Pay. Rate is hideous for the way we bust our butts!! You can call ,HR til the cows come home....I have at least 6 times. Falls on deaf ears. Manager called me in to discuss it only after the asst told her that she really needed to talk to me because I was upset. She sat there while I asked direct questions and basically danced around them like Fred Astaire. No eye contact. Lying every time her mouth moved.Fed up.

Pros

The people and the company respects diversity.

Cons

After working there after a year, the no fault hours doesn't kick in, if your hired date falls after December. Working with lazy employees and bonus are not fairly distributed, depending on which shirt you work on.

Pros

Decent coworkers, easy tasks, fine hours

Cons

Managers did not cooperate with me in terms of scheduling as a student (i was scheduled 30 hr weeks several weeks in a row despite communicating that I could not work that much because of school) and I felt like I was expected to bend over backwards for awful customers on a regular basis. Also, when district managers would come in for their yearly review the store managers would enact insane policies to make us look good to district that were never implemented otherwise (i.e. we weren't allowed to drink water on the store floor, even if you were on the register for an entire 8 hour shift.) I also did not like being told to continue aggressively pitching the company credit card to customers who had already told me several times that they were not interested, I feel this created a negative relationship between the customer and employees.
