Pros

Work with great people some coordinators work really hard others have special privileges customers are funny could have a descent future with the company but allot of things need to change two out of four managers are really cool occasionally we get breakfast and coffee.

Cons

Management needs to be on the same page got 4 managers and none of them know a from b if you ask each one something you will get 4 different answers pay rate sucks it's like a sweat shop for Penny's managers haven't been giving the back room 15 min breaks for like a year until we started the new 2.0 system which is crap they need to appreciate their employees and stop making us pick up their slack when people keep quitting or gm attitude is horrible

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.
