Pros

-Manual labor work -Busy work (plenty of tasks to fill your shift) -Flexible hours -Friendly coworkers

Cons

EVERYTHING ELSE -Hostile work environment -Aggressive managers(severe micro-managing) In my departments you were watched like a hawk, not allowed to work with or talk to another employee WHAT SO EVER, and given a long list of tasks to do without any clear direction. The work itself wasn't hard and I actually enjoyed the manual labor and daily tasks, however, it would be easier to accomplish the tasks in a timely matter if your coworkers were allowed to split the work load with you. That just isn't the case though, being friendly and working as a team is a joke to the NEX. The managers don't wish to help you succeed and grow in the company, it's clear their only motives are to harass you and squash any motivation you had to put into your work.

Pros

Buying at the NEX (Tax free items, Scratch Cards. Clearance, Gas) & Base Access (Gym, Commissary, Amenities)

Cons

immediate supervisors were ignorant in how to manage multiple tasks and people despite working over a decade at establishment. Completely ruined working environment for sales associates if they did not like you.
