Pros

the money is better than most places. it gives you more experience to add to your resume. you get two breaks.

Cons

no respect from upper management. YOUR AVAILABILITY IS IGNORED!!!!!! i put specific hours that i could work and they are being ignored. for instance on saturdays i can work 10am to 4pm do to another commitment yet i am scheduled 830am to 430pm. Do not talk to management about unsafe working conditions.....all they will do is treat you like crap for complaing. get out as soon as you can find something better. weekend pay is not worth the stress of this job.

Pros

A few of the people are nice to work with.

Cons

A store manager who talks down to employees like they're children (and apparently gets promoted for it). A store manager who acts like employees are idiots for calling him to ask questions. Raises are pathetic. Understaffed because the store manager won't allow enough labor hours to do the job, particularly on Sundays when there's a lot of freight.
