Pros

Having the opportunity to work with some of the most talented people in the industry.

Cons

Every job has its good and bads, ultimately focus should always be on the customer leave all the other stuff outside the building.

Pros

-Most CSR's are nice -Most of the other employees are nice -Flexible hours; I have had soccer tournaments on big holiday weekends, and they have allowed me to take the time off that I need

Cons

-Unless you work in the Portland, ME stores, you make $8/hr, which isn't great when you're a student athlete who can't work 20+ hours a week -When you don't have any customers, you aren't allowed to just stand there, which I understand, but after you have clean your register, blocked the soda machines, AND blocked the candy, there isn't a lot left to do -Sometimes the CSR's pawn their duties off on the cashiers and baggers -Seems like they'll hire ANYONE and keep employees even after they have sworn in front of customers, not shown up to work with no excuse multiple times, etc... -Not in love with the uniforms, but I understand -When the other employees aren't in good moods, they'll take it out on you when you're just trying to be nice to them
