Terrible management techniques: Constantly switching out managers for each department Lack of communication between shift managers leads to inconsistency and changing expectations. Constantly understaffed Stressed management leads to impossible goals, especially when understaffed Never get off on time and usually takes over an hour to get the store closed

Pros

Decent hours, you get off earlier depending on the size of the truck coming in that day which can be a good and bad thing. You also get several hours before the store opens without customers. No late nights.

Cons

Too early for some, and even earlier mornings during high traffic times of the year like Christmas/Black Friday Sales days.
