Pros

You get holidays off and that's about the only pro I can think of for this job. You also get 2 weekends off a month if you're full time.

Cons

They say you get "time and a half" on Sundays but when they do schedule you on Sundays they give you less hours during the week so you're not actually making more money that week. No room for advancement past department manager because the hire most floor managers externally and the pay is low for department managers. Very conservative company, the dress code is ridiculous.. women have to wear a skirt or dress with hosiery. You are required to work 6 days a week during holiday but also can't go over 40 hours so you don't get overtime. You constantly have to work in other departments because they're always understaffed. You're not allowed to have conversations with people in neighboring departments or you could get written up. If you're even 1 min late it counts as tardy and after 17 tardies you get fired. The list goes on! I've been in retail for 10 years and this was the worst job I've ever worked I don't recommend it.
