Pros

-Store owners are flexible with schedules/callouts. -Thorough, appropriate training is provided. -Managers and owners are reaiy and available to answer questions or assist with unexpected problems. -Store is run efficiently. -Store owners try to make the workplace a positive one. -Lots of fun community outreach. -Customers are great!

Cons

-Negative work environment at times due to coworker drama and gossip. -Owners not addressing employee concerns in a timely manner so it appears that employees who are slacking off, causing arguments, etc are being unpunished. This causes resentment and accusations of favoritism among employees. -High turnover rate among cashier/sales floor associates -You have to demand a raise if your position is changed, and salary discussion is not allowed so they don't get more people asking for raises! -Store owners regularly have their child in the store, both in the back warehouse and main office, and she is quite often a distraction to employees.
