Pros

-The store is closed on Sundays so you can generally plan on not coming in that day although sometimes there are shifts available on Sundays for inventory and special projects -The pay when I worked there was about 50 cents above minimum wage

Cons

-Management kept me at 33 hours per week to avoid promoting me to full time which would have nearly doubled my pay and offered me health care -Management in general is incompetent, egotistical, and lazy -You are discouraged from taking your full (legally required) break time -Tiny infractions can lead to write ups or termination

Pros

Decent Hours. Always closed on Sundays

Cons

Not consistent schedule. Had to manually enter all prices and sales (required memorizing sales each week). Too many errors that way
