Pros

Extra pay for weekends, forklift license, and holidays. Fun coworkers and friendly environment. The hours are easily negotiable and management can usually work with you if you need time off or extra hours.

Cons

One of the biggest cons is the lack of organization in different parts of the store. This is currently being fixed in many stores with remodels, but only time will tell if it really helps. Another con is the lack of technology in the workplace. Handheld computers, smartphones, or radios could all help employees find items instantly, but they are not available to most workers.

Pros

A few of the people are nice to work with.

Cons

A store manager who talks down to employees like they're children (and apparently gets promoted for it). A store manager who acts like employees are idiots for calling him to ask questions. Raises are pathetic. Understaffed because the store manager won't allow enough labor hours to do the job, particularly on Sundays when there's a lot of freight.
