Pros

Fair compensation and shared experiences of being overworked .

Cons

You are more often than not overworked and expected to handle working 55-60 hour weeks. The more short staffed the area the more work you are expected to do, even if that means working weekends, holidays/time off and late nights. With taken on more you are told what you could have done better while be given more responsibility to take on with an already overflowing plate. Your contributions are an afterthought and your shortcomings are the main focus, appreciation and a life outside of work is hard to come by.

Pros

Even though this is with my store specifically I got really lucky with my coworkers. Every season change there is 40% off for about a week other than that is 20%. They also have scholarship opportunities.

Cons

It’s a really physical job, sometimes it’s so busy that you can’t even take a break especially during Christmas season, you WILL debate working there during that time. The store hours are horrible and since most of the time were understaffed we won’t leave until almost midnight just cleaning up.
