Pros
Nice discount, relaxed dress code, and fundraisers for great causes.
Cons
Payroll is tight and keeps getting tighter. The work load expected to be finished by one person couldn’t even be finished rushed by two people. The work load is outrageous. On average only two people to sort through and put out 450-600 boxes of merchandise in a 7 hour span. Only two people to close and clean a store after a very busy day. We all run around like chickens without heads trying to get through the workload. The pay is very low. Cashiers at other companies make more than our management does. It’s sickening. We work a lot off the clock because payroll is so tight and we can’t get the work done. So not only are we not getting paid enough but we are working for free as well. There is no work life balance as we are taking on these extra hours. Sadly there are store managers with many children who can’t afford a home after spending 50+ hours busting their butts. From what I’ve seen district managers do not help in any way. They never get their hands dirty and help with the work load. All the stress causes a lot of tension within management who end up turning on each other which wouldn’t be happening if we were given the payroll to get the job done. Every week there are new stores opening up and within 8 months of opening they have paid for themselves so why are they cutting our payroll and not paying us a fair wage? They are obviously doing well.
