Pros

Easy, workable hours Meet some good friends also working there, when you meet an appreciative customer it makes the mess look a lot less bad!!

Cons

Management team does not hold much care for employees, treated like robots, pick on little things and make you feel small

Pros

As I work in the city, the pay rate is suprisingly good for working in retail. Also with my store also being new the stuff facilities are to a high standard.

Cons

Poor in store management in my store personally. If you wish to move up to the next level (ie. Full timer/supervisor etc) you need to have a relationship on a friendship level with a manager otherwise no chance. Not much praise is given to those who work hard constantly and poor communication between management and staff.
