Pros

Two days off every week except during holiday weeks. Training was outstanding back in 1999! You were trained as an owner of the store

Cons

Union Store you are required to join to continue your employment. You pay monthly dues for no representation from the union. You are treated like a number, if you make to much they will cut your hours and/or make you a general clerk from a journeyman.

Pros

Good Benefits,Quick job advancement opportunities if you are a good to decent worker . Good Holiday pay and paid vacations for old contract workers.Employee discount on items.Good first job instead of working in fast food buisness.

Cons

Low pay to start most positions and pay raises take forever and goes on hours worked not time at that position. Not enough help and most of the help you get is bad do to the company Hiring around minimum to start and you have to pay weekly union dues to keep your job. A regular day is visits bye DM or Corporate workers expecting the store to look perfect. With understaffed stores and some bad help .Store Managers trying to do multiple jobs all over the store to try to fix things. Department Managers trying to do double work because of not help,sick calls,people quitting or bad help or slow help. Stress breaks its way down from the Store Manager to the Department Heads to the clerks/cashiers. But not the courtesy clerks.
