      Pros

      Health Benefits, retirement package (minimal if you're under 30), paid time off, flexibility with shifts, t-shirt as a uniform, changing tasks over the course of your shift

      Cons

      Hours get cut regularly during the year (depending on the location, but it's pretty consistent) with new hires following before your hours are replaced, performance reviews have not been consistent or fair and will continue to be that way, expect to be injured because of the physical nature of the job, the company is going corporate but there is a lot of miscommunication about what is expected of employees, managers tend to be superficial

      Pros

      -Great way to meet people, socialize, and learn customer service -Always tasked with different things every hour -Friendly crew who will always help you to learn and get better at your job -Get a slight pay raise every 6 months -No outside commitments and amazing benefits if you work full time (about 28 hours a week for every 6 months) -Will take time, but find your friend group, stay with them and have fun, you can't please everybody -Care for your body, do not overdo it with physical labor, its a retail job and you only have one fragile body for yourself, get help or insist about your pains

      Cons

      -Not many, unless you are stuck in a bad store with bad management -I had some good luck of working in 3 great stores, so YMMV -Sometimes can get cliquey like you are back in high school -Getting promoted up to store management may involve buttering up and being a "yes-person" -Care for your body, do not overdo it with physical labor, its a retail job and you only have one fragile body for yourself, get help or insist about your pains
