      If you REALLY want a job you won't like at all...

      Pros

      catching some of the sales, occasionaly "employee appreciation" discounts, plenty of hours during the winter holiday season, some friendly customers

      Cons

      Hard work for minimum wage (I.E. unloading the truck, being stretched waay too thin, Running around like crazy trying to get everything on your gameplan done), Hours being cut when sales are "low", Being told, in so many words, that you have no right to organize being made to feel as though you ought to do everything for a corporation that cares nothing about you & has to hire new and incompetent people every few months ridiculous rules and procedures to follow to improve the company that cares nothing about its employees.... Not to mention the fact that you have to buy a whole new wardrobe when you get a job there that Michaels pays 0% of the cost for.

      NOT in the job description

      Cashier/stocking/customer service
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Relaxing job when you're not unloading the trucks/stocking the shelves. Most of the time mgmt would work with you about schedule conflicts.

      Cons

      Low pay, not enough hours. Definite favoritism when it came to who they scheduled to arrive at 5a.m. and unload the trucks/stock the shelves. Negative atmosphere when it came to management to employee relations. Reminded me of high school. If I wake up at 5 in the morning twice a week and work hard while I'm there, give me more hours for the rest of the week. >$200 paychecks are helpful when you're in the store practically alone stocking shelves when its still dark outside and you are already looking for a reason to go home and sleep.

      Pros

      Co-workers were awesome to work with as we often had to really band together to get things done due to the poor management my particular store had.

      Cons

      Management was horrible. Not long after I quit the store manager quit and the assistant manager was fired. Management often did little if anything to help us out with difficult customers, long lines, etc.
