Pros

good benefits, associate discounts, opportunities to move up, training is available, most managers and store directors really care about their associates and it shows, flexible schedules available, willingness to hire and work with associates with disabilities, paid days off/vacation/sick pay, schedule is posted 2 weeks out to allow for the ability to plan for activities and appointments, willingness to work with those in school or that have other jobs, opportunities to learn new jobs and change jobs and/or location, weekly pay for hourly associates, overall a good company to work for

Cons

pay is not fair across the store, parcels do not get paid enough for what we ask them to do, hard to get approval for performance raises, cashiers are expected to get customers through lines quickly but they keep cutting the number of hours we can schedule our cashiers for, expect more work from less associates to the point where associates can not even get help for customers from other associates because there are not enough on the floor. We are expected to help keep the store clean but are not allowed extra hours to ensure this can be done regularly.

Pros

local managers and corporate managers are really enjoyable to converse with and make associate's feel like they are worth something. They are great at making everyone feel welcome and ensuring that every associate is a team member.

Cons

If your managers aren't being effective the entire store is thrown off and it makes for a rough day at work.

Pros

It's a job that pays decent for retail

Cons

Most department managers really don't care about there associates. They stay in the office leave early and complain that things don't get done. One manager even calls in associates early from other departments if necessary so he can go home early. And not just every now and then were talking four or five times a year.
