Fun job, awful management - Bookseller Half Price Books Employee Review

Pros

The work itself was fun and kept me engaged and my brain running.

Cons

Management acted like teenagers. 3 out of 5 of the management while I was here were awful people: no patience for my autism, gossip about employees, blatant and obvious favoritism, no empathy for my personal life situation. Suffice it to say, I was essentially told to plan my domestic violence better so it wouldn’t inconvenience their scheduling. Absolutely abysmal.

Pros

Great coworkers. Get quarterly bonus checks. Not a super hard job.

Cons

Mangement is kinda iffy and they really require you to do a lot more work than you're paid for.
