Pros

- Pays just above min wage. - Comfortable working conditions - 20% discount on everything (including Sephora inside JCP!!!) - Pretty flexible hours / worked around my school and theater schedule.

Cons

- Hours were just recently cut, I'm only working about 10-12 hours a week now, and only on weekends. - LOTS of busywork on the floor / Staying over an hour after we close just to clean up. - Supervisors / Managers somewhat uncaring
