Pros

Great hardworking coworkers, decent compensation, very straightforward tasks given

Cons

Like with any job management can be a pain at times, under staffing on nights with a ton of work, little to no communication between shifts resulting in some problems for the next few days

Pros

Exposure to all parts of retail and management. Have to learn and do every position at a moment's notice (claims, invoicing, UPC, receiving, unloading, stocking, recovery, cash office, loss prevention, courtesy, cashier, store standards, maintenance) which is good if you like variety and want to build skills/experience. Good pay, immediate benefits, bonus after 1 year.

Cons

Steep learning curve, barely any training, no feedback, constant store location/SWAS changes, no follow-though. Culture of exploitation, empty promises and complaining. Expected to be on call 24/7 and be early/stay late, work takes priority over lunch/washroom breaks.
