Pros

At one time I thought getting 8 weeks vacation was great but it is not worth my life! Vacation is great but living is better!

Cons

In Shrewsbury Mass we are under new management. We are being sworn, and yelled at in front of our co-workers.Corporate sends down times it takes to do job but our store is making us do the tasks in less time. They are cutting the part-timers hours and making us full time 40 hour associates do their job and ours. Its time to get legal help.
