Pros

-Good foot in the door for print work -Employees were great -Lots of opportunity to learn the ins and outs of production/design/retail

Cons

-Management will look for any excuse to write you up -Management more obsessed with selling pens/flashdrives/candy than selling print/design -Constant threat of being fired/written up/harassed by management -Truly the dumbest customer base in the history of retail (clueless about technology, enraged at the slightest problem, think print jobs are instantly created) -I was promoted (7 months after being told I would be promoted) only to discover that you cannot be promoted again until 6 months have passed (If I had been promoted when promised, it would not have been a problem) -Paid chump change, when one considers it is 8+ hours of nonstop work, work, work. -Constantly shifting hours -As a night shift employee, expected to clean the entire store, help every customer that walks through the door, AND do the giant pile of jobs left by the day shift to be ready in the morning. -Called constantly by the day shift during my time off about jobs (waking me up, my sleep schedule was non existent those 2 years) -Management limits the number of hirings a district can have, to the point that it does not keep up with (abnormally high) turnover

Pros

Good work life balance, hours are flexible, team members are pretty nice overall, benefits are good, company is stable and job security is good

Cons

Way too many things to remember, they say “you don't have to remember everything, just know where you can figure it out” and thats all fine and good but there are so many places to go and you have to know where, and despite what they say there are things you cant find anywhere and just have to know, so many systems are just confusing and have no real guidelines to follow, and thats not to mention that every manager has there own places where they do it either the fedex way or their own way, and you never know until you get called out for doing something. Pay is also pretty low and the only way to make more is take on management roles
