Pros

As a student I enjoy the flexible scheduling, nice employee discount, sometimes a fun place to work. I have a great supervisor.

Cons

You sometimes work long hours on your feet, poor pay, poorly staffed, retail positions are not stable in today's economy.

Pros

Wonderful co-workers, made lifelong friends while working here - Big name, opens other doors just based upon this (looks good on your resume)

Cons

Hard to get promoted unless you are well liked or are friends with HR/ upper management... not based on performance. Company does whats best for itself rather than you. Benefits and pay on the lower side. Will definitely be working more than 40 hours a week and not getting paid for it!

Pros

The managers I worked with treated you professionally and seem to take pride in what is being done on the sales floor. They were aware that most of the hourly people were not there for the long haul but treated them with respect just the same. Great team environment. Good first job for post high school people.

Cons

Most hourly workers get paid too little to stay very long. That seems to be the nature of the retail beast. Too many long nights, unable to get 9-5 schedule.
