      Pros

      some of the people you meet are great

      Cons

      Some of the most unprofessional unmanaged people I have ever worked around. Everyone is expected to work 12+ hours with no breaks. One manager even tried to guilt trip us by saying "we sacrificed our lives for this store y'all should do the same" despite them advertising "good work life balance". They will have you stay until midnight and come back for a shift at 6 am. Constantly adding new rules and regulations that make it incredibly difficult to even know what your day to day responsibilities are. Overall this job is a masterclass in how NOT to run a business.

      Pros

      Hardworking staff and helpful advice given

      Cons

      Poor communication between management and supervisors altogether. One supervisor or manager says one thing while the other says something else. Scheduled times are shown on Dayforce but actual times don’t show up for weeks at a time. Too much work to be done for one day, leading to unfinished work within the scheduled times, which also leads to everyone having to stay 2-3 hours longer than supposed to be. Some employees are constantly being asked to come in on days off to get stuff done. This in conjunction with having no set days to work (i.e. working different days every week with almost no say or know until the schedule is set) creates an unhealthy work life balance for part time employees at the very least.
