Pros

Decent pay Always something to do, makes the time go fast Store Manager and District Manager willing to work with my school schedule Store Manager was really great to work with and most associates and shift managers were great to work with, too.

Cons

Your register abilities are timed to fairly strict standards Way too few people staffed at one time, usually two associates and a shift manager. Was previously only one associate and a shift manager. District Managers and and higher ups have unrealistic standards in terms of item scanning and associate responsibilities. The responsibilities always seemed to be expanding, and the District Manager was always putting us down that we were not doing good enough, even getting into arguments with the Store Manager.
