Pros

Hourly rate is good, but the you are limited on hours unless you call around to find hours at other stores.

Cons

To keep productivity high, cashiers are forced to stock the shelves AND run the cash register at the same time. Customers are forced to wait to be rung up until the cashier that is stocking notices them standing at the register. No matter how productive your store is, the DM's rarely aknowledge it and only want more. Unless you have a 4 year degree, YOU HAVE NO CHANCE OF ADVANCING PAST STORE MANAGER. The majority of the DM's are in their early 20's, right out of college and have no clue what they're doing. They sound like they are reading from a script. They say the same phrases, like " can I get you anything before I leave"

Pros

the money and benefits are nice at first and the customer are the greatest. there is always work so never a dull moment

Cons

you spend your life around the store, sick days are a joke, with the amount of employees you have its you or no one!! they are always pushing you with no rewards for the cashiers or shift managers. we are the face of the store and when we make the customer happy the dm or manager gets rewarded!!

Pros

All I can say is the medical insurance was great.

Cons

all of it was ridiculous and degrading. I worked my butt off in that sweat shop for over 3 years and wasn't appreciated for one moment by management.
