Pros

1) You get to work with the coolest of toys. 2) The work isn't all that difficult. 3) Generous employee discounts (the customers get stuffed).

Cons

District/Regional Management ignores bad store managers and allows them to skip work and make us assistant managers do his work while he gets paid. The store manager kept two schedules-- one for what was really worked and one for payroll. Several days a week the timecard system would be "down" so we couldn't log in. The manager swore he put the hours in for us and blamed corporate. Employees often got shorted on their paychecks. Employees who complained got fired and corporate supported them. I was fortunate enough to read the writing on the wall and find a better job.

Work environment (wear whatever you want) Co-workers Freebies (wellness programs, on-site gym, snacks and coffee all day) Quality of equipment and It's a toy company Discounts (tickets, massages every week, fitness classes, etc. Opportunity to move within the Company

Cons

Career advancement is heavily dependent on playing the "game" Lot's of cliques PAY! (in the contact center...get in here, work you butt off and move on) Personal/Vacation time (again, in the contact center)

Pros

Employee discounts, flexible schedule and most co-workers were great!

Cons

Terrible training, no upward mobility, once you took a job (even if the job was beneath your actual capabilities) you were stuck in that position. Upper management only saw where you worked currently and not your potential. After training (which was substandard to say the least) you are thrown out on the call center floor. Horrible experience being a temp-hire. We were told what the requirements were to stay on as a permanent employee and then those requirements were thrown out the window when the decisions were made. I would never work for this company again, even after receiving wonderful scores, perfect attendance and provided the company with the upsells on their 'free' magazine subscription and doing all the right things to stay after the temp time was over. This company really needs to get it together!
