Pros

benefits, co-workers, team work and ''some'' customers were nice to deal with otherwise the Fremont area is a trashy customer base

Cons

poor management, cheap corporate, strict rules regarding loss prevention ( focus on customer servicing shop lifters rather than apprehensions) would rather see goods leave the store then stopping thieves.

Thank you for your honest feedback. Our RISC team does review security infrastructure, new techniques, and innovative ways to prevent loss on a regular basis. Many times the changes we make take time however and a few versions before we get it right. Insights like this help us to adjust and make improvements for all Associates.

Pros

All of my coworkers were wonderful. No high school drama. Boss was flexible and understanding, although he always liked it if you said you could work more hours. The employee discount is pretty awesome. The work wasn't bad and rude customers were rare.

Cons

There was pressure to come in even when you were sick. Pay wasn't the greatest; it usually stayed ahead of minimum wage, but by no means kept up with inflation. Visits from corporate often meant a new change in procedures that had been working and demands that were somewhat unreasonable given the constraints of the layout or number of employees available.
