      Pros

      Assistant managers, FES, sales associates all seemed like decent people. Twenty percent discount was nice. Work is hard, but you'll leave feeler a little more fit after every shift. Although my friend and I were hired as 'Sales Associates', we never had to deal with customers.

      Cons

      Management prone to sudden outbursts of hostility, blaming anyone/everyone else for their short comings. Management can be genuinely scary to be near, as you just don't know when one is going to fly off the handle. I was asked to perform certain tasks, then was chewed out after doing what was asked of me. Management seems to have memory issues, they would insist that I was never told to do it. Huh? It wasn't just me. All my co-workers had it happen to them too. Also, management was not nice at all to customers, which I found surprising.
