Pros

Nice and easy job for high school or summer. Easy system for getting started and learning all the codes and procedures. Working in the checkout aisle feels like a relaxing, yet moving job throughout the day. Community is really nice with encouraging management and a nice group of other high school and college employees.

Cons

Really lame customers occasionally. Having to ask customers for charity donations all the time is really tedious sometimes and can draw some negative reactions from customers. Pay is relatively low, and unfortunately there are limited store benefits for newer employees.

Pros

Friendly and helpful colleagues, weekly pay and flexible schedule

Cons

When it is busy, it is very busy. Lunch/Break may get pushed back or even denied in extreme cases because there is no one to cover for you.
