Pros

good hours, only few sundays, friendly atmosphere (for most part), team effort from most, most managers cared about you as person not just as employee, good benefits, family centered, good discount, educational, Christian atmosphere mostly. good christmas bonus, good 5 year appreciation gift

Cons

outdated registers/technology, christmas music starting the day after thanksgiving...every year!! 30 minute lunch breaks, 2-faced managers (only 1 of the 3 store managers that i had, during my 5 year period) having to hang christmas ornaments 1 by 1 on the pegs...all 1,000,000,000 of them. RESETS that occured continuously! Getting more glitter on you than on the picks/sprays during christmas time. ; )

Not too bad for retail

Pros

The store has experienced a low rate of turnover. There's a good sense of camaraderie amongst employees. The store manager is pleasant and accessible. Having Sundays off is great.

Cons

They've been cutting hours lately. The DM is unpleasant to deal with. The way merchandise is packed/shipped results in a lot of it arriving broken which gets frustrating.
