Pros

The other employees were amazing (and equally depresses)

Cons

I was promised the exact same salary as the job I LEFT to work at Alhambra - instead I was paid minimum wage. When I asked about direct deposit, I was informed I would need to pay the owner $45 every two weeks in order to receive my paycheck this way. My job title (Ecommerce merchandiser) turned out to be entirely superfluous and I was essentially the owner's personal bookkeeper. She does not pay overtime!!! So make sure you do not work over 8 hours; you will not be compensated accordingly (or legally).

Pros

Friendly co-workers to commiserate. Some genuinely nice customers.

Cons

Very little base-pay with no overtime and a commission system that depends on how the owner is feeling, law-breaking scheduling practices where employees work for 10 hours with only one half-hour lunch break, not being allowed to chat with coworkers while there are customers on the sales floor (otherwise you'll be scolded and scowled at by the owner)... I could go on and on.
