Pros

It is very easy to get promoted in your store. If you work at a busy location, shifts go by incredibly fast due to the amount of work there is to do. You can get overtime after 9 hours. You are guaranteed 16 hours a week minimum.

Cons

Management does NOT care and WILL overwork you for little pay. Customers are almost as rude as careless management. You are forced to join a union and pay monthly dues. My boss literally did not let you call in sick, fired you if you did. Schedules are very inconsistent, not a good job if you are a student because they will schedule you when they want to regardless of your availability.

Pros

My co-workers were great, my bosses were kind, they gave me a job and I advanced with little prior experience.

Cons

The corporate policies are awful. No one besides managers get full time hours, raises are an insulting 10 cents, they expect you to be available at any & ask times, while also expecting you to live on 24 hours a week of work (at $8/hr).

Pros

Managers and supervisors are awesome! They are very understanding and will gratitude where gratitude is due. They will also joke around and create a great work environment. Some of my coworkers help to make a great environment.

Cons

The Union is awful and a waste of money. They just stand in the way of firing people that should be fired and tie the managers' hand. Some of the checkers/baggers can be incompetent/lazy and leave a lot of slack in addition to being an annoyance. There is little employee benefit when it comes to shopping.
