Pros
Free drinks and when food is "stale" you can eat it. The clerks I worked with were great and very polite.
Cons
The first red flag was during my interview, when they told me I would have to shave my face. I wasn't happy about it but I figured I could suck it up for 43k/year. The second red flag was when I was at orientation and found out that the 43k was mostly comprised of bonuses that I may or may not get. I decided to give it a chance. Then training started, and wow is it brutal. My trainer was extremely harsh on me and my fellow trainee, and I thought to myself "I'll get used to the workload and things will smooth out." I gave it two weeks and man was I in more physical, mental and emotional pain than any job has ever given me. No breaks has got to be the biggest flaw, I mean seriously? You ask someone to work 9 hours straight (which is already more than the average work shift) and you wont even let them sit down for ten minutes? I had one-on-ones with my trainer at the end of each shift, which was basically a "Let me criticize you for a bit then send you home" session. I was told that I wasn't fast enough, despite working as fast as humanly possible and not even stopping to take a bathroom break or eat something most shifts. I was told that I smelled bad despite showering and wearing deodorant everyday. I shaved everyday before work and was still told that I wasn't clean shaven enough, and one day my trainer forced me to buy a razor from the store so I could go shave in the bathroom. On the first day that I was expected to run a shift by myself, my trainer micromanaged and told me what to do every step of the way and then told me I wasn't being assertive enough at the end of the shift. My feet hurt everyday and I lost so much sleep that I refused to continue with this slave labor. Also the pay is BS, no one can live off the measly 11.00/hr they pay assistant managers and a "pay package" is the term they will use to try to cover up the fact that they are paying so little for how much they expect out of you. The fact that they advertise 43k/year is blatant false advertisement.
