Pros

I enjoy my job, my duties and my coworkers. Its a high paced, fun place to work. I really enjoy working with the public.

Cons

Part time employees don't get enough hours. On average I'm scheduled 13-15 hours per week and have to volunteer on my days off to get extra hours. Corporate only allows part time employees to have no more than 24.50 hours per week, but our new store manager has cut part timers back even more only allowing us to have 20-22 hours a week max(if we are lucky). Usually we get scheduled several short shifts a week 4 or 5 hours a day when scheduled. 30-40 hours for a 2 week pay check at $9.00/hr is hardly enough for a single person to make it on. Most of us are trying to support a family of 3,4,5 or more and its just not enough.

Pros

Even though this is with my store specifically I got really lucky with my coworkers. Every season change there is 40% off for about a week other than that is 20%. They also have scholarship opportunities.

Cons

It’s a really physical job, sometimes it’s so busy that you can’t even take a break especially during Christmas season, you WILL debate working there during that time. The store hours are horrible and since most of the time were understaffed we won’t leave until almost midnight just cleaning up.
