Pros

Pay check hasn't bounced yet. Parking is free. The onsite cafeteria hasn't poisoned anyone, yet, as far as I've heard. (But it is pricy.)

Cons

Pay is bad Benefits are terrible Frequent layoffs Incompetent people get promoted Comp never actually pays out Terrible place to work I don't want to carry and ugly purse every day. JCP doesn't sell clothes for professional working women so why make us wear this unstylish stuff? They lie about the future to appease you
