      All they care about is money

      Pros

      Good employee discount for full timers

      Cons

      All they care about is wringing as much money out of their employees and their clients. Gone are the days where they actually care about you as a person. Highly do not recommend.

      Great Place to work but a lot of politics to move up.

      Pros

      Great employees and work environment. Lot's of structure. Goals are clear. Ongoing training.

      Cons

      Advancement structure is very biased. If you are hoping to move up based on merit, look elsewhere. Advancement is largely based on who you work to impress, and not what you actually do. They choose "rising stars" based on saying things to the right people at the right time, vs putting in your time and getting things done.

      Your Coworkers are your only lifelife

      Pros

      They have decent pay for a retail job. Underneath management the staff is usually good to work with.

      Cons

      The corporate world is full of cuts. Some company's take it out on management, Some management takes it out on workers. This is one of those companies. No matter if you are a worker or a manager there are unique evils about how best buy takes away the balance. For workers managers are overworked. They take it out on the workers. For workers, mistakes are harshly punished, hours are not guaranteed.
