      Pros

      Great pay for the position.

      Cons

      Mangement. Aggressive take on training. I'll tell you once and not anymore type. No time to properly train. Was thrown to start a task without proper taking first day. Manager would focus on things that didn't matter like talking about her personal life. So bipolar. The store where i trained for month and a half took me back to my high school days. So much unnecessary drama. Happy i left.

      Very stressful. Bad management. Frowned upon if not flexible. No 11 hour break between shifts.
