Pros

-Benefits even for part-timers, if you have enough hours -Advancement opportunity -Co-workers generally adhere to professional standards more than at other companies -Open-door policy for speaking with managers

Cons

-Corporate mentality common to retail: "You must be available to us for scheduling 24/7, even though we may only give you a few hours a week, and in return we will have no regard for your needs as a human being or for how our scheduling policies affect you." -Seemingly no written policy for advancing to full-time -Divergent policies among managers, or even the same manager on different day or depending on who is asking -Seniority counts for, apparently, nothing whatsoever
