Pros

Normal for any job in this industry: free food, filling the time between bouts of over indulgence of internet. Normal for any job: new social interaction with customers/ coworkers, a wage, exercise, helping people.

Cons

For a part timer the inconstant hours are bothersome. The part I'm, of course, expected to do and not complain because it's an integral part of the job is the trouble with customer interaction; one learns how to communicate better with people of his or her community but it's an up hill battle. There are countless times I've believed a customer slightly insane because they wanted me to preform some illogical, pointless, or inefficient task. I'm grateful the consequences of mistakes are so minor and easily rectified generally speaking.

Pros

Very flexible scheduling, especially if your manager is willing to work around all their employees. You usually get a 50% discount that you can use once a day too.

Cons

Direct district management at this location does not know how to manage people. He will not really do anything to help or assist until his supervisors look into his stores and what he does. He will shift blame onto any general manager he can, and if any district manager decides you are doing your job incorrectly or you need to adjust what you are doing, there will be little to no support in helping you become a better employee. It really can become a "popularity contest" when you work in store management. If you are a regular employee or shift lead, you won't really have any direct contact with district management.
