      Very hard working freight but not really appreciated for what you do for the amount of pay that they promise to pay when

      Pros

      It's really hard to think of anything positive about working there, or at least at the store location I was at.

      Cons

      They were supposed to pay me $9.25 an hour working freight but I only received $8.25 and was promised it would be made up next pay period. Not only was it not in the next pay but that one was all so short. I've been calling and sending e-mails but no one will get back to me.

      Pros

      Young employees and fun products

      Cons

      Bad management. No career path. Unprofessional work environment. HR department doesn't assist/advise well. No work/life balance. Managers that don't manage people well. Poor compensation. Difficult to get promoted (even if you've been there awhile and have proven yourself) ...the list goes on and on

      It's a great environment, but you can only live off your wages if you're a GM or AM.

      Pros

      Fun environment, good upper management, casual dress

      Cons

      Part-time managers get 25 hours a week or less during non-peak season. All other part-time associates get a shift or two a week. Great employees leave for other jobs because they can't afford to stay. Management talks about the idea of developing talent and promoting from within, but most promotions I have seen have been outside hires.
