Pros

Depending on where you are hired in the stores your schedule can be pretty flexible. The benefits are decent compared to similar jobs, but are unfortunately getting worse with every contract renewal with the local Union.

Cons

In order for customers to come first, the employee needs to come first. Very sales driven company. To the point where the customer is always right even when completely wrong.

Pros

Very little contact with customers. Night premium. Small discount on store brand items.

Cons

Extremely low pay. Insurance isn't available until after your first year. Head store manager has no people skills, a very bad attitude and is blinded by personal ambition. This infects the entire store with a glum, sour tone. In general, clerks and associates have a very bad attitude.
