Pros

The benefits package is great if you're an HL3 or 4 employee, HL2 is okay but PTO accruals aren't as high. Full time benefits if you work at least 20 hours a week

Cons

Management is primarily concerned about earning the annual bonus rather than fix several issues regarding excess waste and green policies, employee morale, workload excess due to lack of quality hiring, and callout abuse due to an inability to manage employees already on staff who only come in to earn a paycheck.

Pros

Good benefits, cheap lunch, never a dull moment, overall lgbtq positive environment

Cons

Disrespected by the cliquey status of how the store handles departments, hard labor job with unequal pay, unable to hire on additional hands because of how hard the job is compared to how much you get paid. The way they handle annual reviews is you need to be able to LITERALLY change the very foundations of the company in order to get an "excellent" rating. You are completely discouraged from trying do work hard at your job due to the fact your hard work will not be properly rewarded.

Pros

Good pay, good benefits like decent pto accumulation and okay healthcare costs

Cons

Management is a joke, I imagine this is definitely location dependent but if your manager doesn’t have you in their list of favorites they can and will make your day a living nightmare with no repercussions since HR only exists to back up management decisions because managers are infallible and unbiased. No accountability for anything and god forbid you point out anything that should be fixed, especially loved when they tried to force every part time employees to give them basically full time availability and only refused to admit their mistake when employees backlashed against it
