Pros

Close to home, that is all.

Cons

NO training upon hire, no feedback from management, chronically understaffed, expected for work non stop, skip breaks, unsafe working conditions, rude managers who never tell you you do anything right, point system for mistakes, but NO training to avoid any, employees expected to clean up (bathrooms, store) with little or no sanitary protection. Horrible, worse job I have ever had.

Pros

Nothing at all, sad to say; not too far from home I guess?

Cons

Long days, irritating customers, management would never acknowledge you, you couldn't leave for the night unless every return and item that people didnt want was put back and that was a LOT of stuff, most you would have to spend 45 minutes looking for. Pay was low, about seven bucks a hour for tiring work. People expected you to know everything about everything No training, just "hey your hired" and they put you to work Also the manager didnt like call outs, so when I called out with the flu in the middle of winter, he stopped scheduling me and didnt have the decency to call and tell me why I wasn't on the schedule for weeks
