Pros

Working with fellow employees was great. Managers were fairly flexible with scheduling and working around college class schedules.

Cons

Low paying. Benefits were poor. Terribly boring and repetitive work. Very wasteful in terms of paper and they don't recycle nearly enough materials. They re-do the same specials weekly and make you change every single tag in the store to make it seem like a different sale.

Pros

Most employees were really fun to work with, life/work balance was great, taught me good life skills, good first job for work experience.

Cons

Barely got scheduled (pretty sure my location was way over employed), occasional rude and entitled costumers (especially during the holidays), could get very slow and boring at times, sketchy area, overal, not a great job if you're looking for something that pays well.
