Pros

Competitive pay, great discounts / benefits. Good room for advancement. Most manager started as part time CD and DVD stockers or cashiers. Room for growth within and outside of your department. They also do surveys of the employees about things such as satisfaction with benefits, and what they can do to change them for the better.

Cons

They do not hire full-time employees, you have to start as part-time. A little lacking on training in a few key departments. Managers following up with supervisors leaves a little to be desired. It seems like there is very little communication between supervisors and the management staff unless something is going very wrong.

Pros

Travel to different store locations. On travel that requires a hotel meals are covered up to $80 a day. Mileage is reimbursed outside of 20miles from home and back.

Cons

You're required to have a car and it puts alot of strain on it and your body. You could be gone from home anywhere from a few days to a few months. Changes are very last minute.
