Pros

They work well with students to work out a schedule that is not too overwhelming for them. You get a raise every 6 months,

Cons

Every once in a while you get a manager that does not mesh well with most of the employees in the department.

Pros

Every department imaginable and opportunities in most all of them. Great community supporter with many opportunities to volunteer and join teams.

Cons

Some departments are forgotten about and offer little exposure to other areas of the business. Some management gets away with not taking HEB's bold promise seriously and upholding it.

Pros

Fantastic scheduling system, you can drop a shift through the computer and anyone qualified may pick it up within minutes. Great starting pay rate and discount on store brand items, saves tons of money on groceries. You get a 25 cent raise every 6 months and you can begin advancing after 1 year, also very easy to transfer stores or departments. They offer benefits such as mobile phone discounts and scholarships. There are may fun employee appreciation events and culture events where you may dress up and/or get free food.

Cons

VERY repetitive work, you handle hundreds of customers in one shift. You will have to work crappy times like weekends, till 1am, etc. because it is retail. Managers are generally nice, but corporate transfers them around to different stores every few years, so you can't really build a relationship. Once you quit or fired, there's a 99% chance you will never ever be rehired.
