Pros

Fun environment to work and rewarding helping parents find what they're looking for to make their kids happy for birthdays, Christmas, etc.

Cons

The pay was terrible as a key-carrying supervisor. Hardly making much more than seasonal hires with tons of responsibilities and stress on top of it all. Due to the massive debt that Toys R Us became saddled with after Bain Capital, Vornado Realty Trust, and Kohlberg Kravis Roberts bought Toys R Us bought it in a leveraged buyout, the company went bankrupt and over 30,000 people lost their jobs while the investment firms made millions.

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.
