Pros

Cool people who you trauma bond with

Cons

Busy and understaffed. Managers try their best but there’s only so much they can help with without more funding from the company.

Pros

Worst customer at Hobby Lobby is cupcakes compared to other retail stores that I've worked In the area. Management is very good at doing their job. Coworkers are always very helpful and understanding. Hard work that is very satisfying. You never run out of opportunities. Part Time is nice: Not exceedingly strenuous. I love it.

Cons

It is not for everyone.

Pros

I really enjoyed my coworkers, and most of the customers who came in were sweet and respectful. Even when someone was rude, it was hard for them to keep it up when faced with an employee who kept a smile on their face.

Cons

The hours at Hobby Lobby were a bit challenging, especially for part-time employees. If you weren’t full-time, you were almost always scheduled on Saturdays. As a college student who didn’t live in the town where I worked, it was difficult to manage time away, especially over the summer. They weren’t very flexible with my schedule, which made me question why they hired students in the first place.
