Pros

Hours at times, Pay was slighty better but nothing different. Some managers and people are good

Cons

Managers truly didnt care about you sometimes. Even working in the Warehouse even though you are the most important group in the store they treat people on the floor nicer. No real oppourntity to level up at times and some managers arent your friend. Barley anybody working on the floor at times so customers will get extremely rude and even in some cases disturb you from your task so you can help them and managers will get mad sometimes even if you help customers as Warehouse or Inventory during certain hours.
