      Managers here chew you out

      Pros

      Flexible hours sometimes. Customers are nice.

      Cons

      I'm honestly tired of getting chewed out by management. They really have used any tiny mistake to grill me that they can find. 13 and hour to be micro managed and reamed just isn't worth it. This really is a hostile place to work. These are the most angry people I've ever worked with in a retail setting before. Two hours of training. No point of moving up, low roof retail... You make 13 or 14 an hour depending on if your a lead or not.

      Pros

      Great employees to work with. Only pro.

      Cons

      Everything! The company keeps changing rules and policies. Cheap pay for the amount of work. They are liars and not transparent. Toxic management. Overwork the good employees. Desperate so they hire anyone. They dont listen to your scheduling so they either give you barely any hours or so many hours. Check employees belongings instead of customers which means they have no trust in their workers.

      Pros

      20% discount is cool, and that’s all.

      Cons

      Where do I even begin.. 1. Started off as part time lead, now working 50-55 hours a week making part time lead pay. A full time lead works 1 day a week yet makes full time pay. 2. Breaks are non existent, unless your management 3. Customers are so rude. You’re expected to bend over backwards for people who cuss you out, call you the R slur, and much more. 4. Coworkers are usually high schoolers who don’t want to work. 5. Management DOES NOT CARE ABOUT YOU 6. Our store quite literally has mold on numerous shelves AND rats in the attic/loft. Not good work environment at all. 7. You’ll be expected to do the job of 5 people, over the course of 10 hours, making $12. Without a break usually. 8. There is no moving up, unless you’re hired in as management, you won’t be moved up or given a raise.
