Pros

I was in college at the time. They were REALLY flexible with conforming to my schedule. You can go to other stores and depending on the store personality it was even better. The company is growing too. Plus you can transfer cross brands.

Cons

Advancement. Either you are hired in on salary or you might spend over 6+ trying to get there. I left because I was there almost 4 years and only went up $2.50 in pay, 1 promotion, and I could tell advancement was slow, even if you get an exceeds on every review. I would have stayed if I was on a development track and matched the pay of people in my position.

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.
