Pros

As an Associate the job is simple, and for students your schedule can be (somewhat) flexible

Cons

Bottom barrel pay, bottom barrel management. Zero reward for longevity, and zero reason to move up in the company. Pay bumps for doing so are extremely minimal. Very high turnover, good personnel tend to move on quickly.

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.
