Pros

discounts tend to be fair

Cons

obnoxious credit programs expected to be available from open to close with an unbalanced work schedule (could be working mornings, mid-day and closing shifts within any given week) Sales, Coupons, Promos and twice daily price changes gives a flea market effect, causing people to constantly barter lower prices for their purchases...which they get.

Pros

company knows what they are doing and how to take care of their associates. but as with all jobs, the management can ruin that experience.

Cons

little pay for a lot of work. you are constantly on your feet and pressured to make people sign up for credit and meet daily goals, without the proper recognition.
