key holder

Pros

never a dull moment! enjoyment being around children is paramount. high energy keeps parents high spirits and the smiles resulting thereof is a reason to come home every night smiling! pay is sufficient especially with an entirely new concept and only open for 2 weeks at my exact location. such a relaxing environment to be a part of. all management in my store particularly is very high energy and take responsibility for actions of all kinds whether positive or not. they know I hired in as keyholder for only 5 months until I start my entrepreneurship in business yet still hired me as management which is harder to replace in short time!

Cons

freight being a 5am shift until around 1 hour after open is difficult. wishing it was around 11pm or midnight after close which works with more schedules!

Pros

Very laid back atmosphere, freedom to make merchandising decisions based on your stores sales and clientele.

Cons

Not enough payroll hours, way too many tasks and moves expected to made in short periods of time, district manager would rather an assistant manager leave their staff shorthanded that give out an hour or two of occasional payroll.
