Pros

Allow you to cross train and work in multiple departments Give you a small compensation for opening credit cards Business casual (more so casual) dress code Occasionally brings in lots of food and drinks Ability to pick up shifts Ability to post shifts you don't want but someone must take them so you don't get in trouble

Cons

Minimum wage with little hours for those considered part time, which is everyone that isn't management Tend to expect you to clean out an entire fitting room by yourself on the busiest of days Really, really like to push for the Kohls credit card Sometimes your break is super late Expect you to move mountains and do anything for the customer no matter how rude or insane the request Can schedule you for a closing shift (10:30pm or 11:30pm) and expect you back by 4am or 5am for your next shift Some of the managers do not like to do their job and others like to make sure everyone is working every single second and their location Wearing a walkie can be very annoying You are always called for back-up on the registers; personally and overhead They never schedule enough cashiers or they schedule way too many

Pros

Loved emptying fitting rooms when that was my only task

Cons

Had to constantly push the credit card, even to old ladies who don’t know any better, was scheduled for shifts I wasn’t trained on, was constantly moved around
