Pros

Great atmosphere. You work with great people, you will make a lot of friends working there. They have some good policies in place to show you that they appreciate the work you do for them. The general idea is great and they definitely have some good ideas. How they are executed is a different story.

Cons

Not very good advancement opportunities. If you do a good job or you try to do a good job, maybe eventually you will get recognized. Also be ready to be policed. Everything that you do will be evaluated, 0 latitude for errors or ingenuity. They want you to do something in one way and if you don't you will be talked to. Maybe they should hire robots to do the job exactly how they want it

Pros

Flexible hours, employee perks such as discounted products, offers 401(k) despite being part-time, coworkers who are nice to work with.

Cons

Management is quick to call-out sales that have nothing attached to it (warranties, card applications, memberships, or accessories). There is a rodent problem that has not been addressed for nearly a year; food and beverages cannot be sold at this store.
