Pros

Everyone helps out with assisting customers, filling customer orders, and placing product on the sales floor/back stock overflow.

Cons

Management needs more work with scheduling shipping & receiving/back of house associates. Had some managers treat me as if I were their personal slave to. i.e. always had me empty the trash/clean the bathrooms, run errands for them as a seasonal hire. Overnight team was messy and did not clean up after themselves in the break room/bathroom. Management wanted you to put product that was overstock on the sales floor when there was no space for it. We had a janitor hired for both trash and bathroom cleaning/emptying, I don't mind doing either or but when you're doing it every day, & there is other associates there besides you there that are capable of doing the same task. That throws up a red flag. And yes I understand at times the janitor was late due to weather/traffic. But still there are other people that can do the same task of cleaning bathrooms and taking trash out.

Pros

Best job ever, I was able to play with toys all the time. I usually stayed late to open boxes, and play, then I put them back in boxes like nothing happened and then go home, my wife always thought I was cheating because I was late, sometimes 3AM, but I just can't stop playing with toys, it was awesome.

Cons

My wife didn't like my job. She hated when I was late.
