Pros

Learning how to buy merchandise, working with good customers, working with books and music.

Cons

Cliqueishness is real with some staff. If you want to get the best assignments and learn new responsibilities or advance, be ready to get that nose brown.

Lots of perks with generous employee discount and being able to borrow books and media via a check/in and out system.

Retail, therefore pretty much expected to work weekends to accommodate store needs.
