Pros

Depending on the department, some of the business leaders and teams are great. Super caring, helpful, and overall a pleasant day-to-day experience. Benefits are descent, at least for now.

Cons

Corporate pay is WAY under market value. Limited or no growth potential. No bonuses. Minuscule raises. Roles don’t get backfilled, existing employees take on more work and don’t get paid for it, so they burnout, quit, and the cycle continues. Employees are spread too thin to care about doing quality work. Executives refuse to make changes at the pace that would be required to keep up with the world. Overall, mediocrity thrives here.

Pros

This was one of my first jobs as a teenager and I felt it was a good starting point. The other employees were friendly and the work was appropriate for a minimum wage job.

Cons

Not any I can think of.

Pros

The scheduling as a seasonal employee is fairly flexible, I've never had trouble getting the time off so long as I request it prior to the schedule going out. The employee discount is also nice as Bachman's has a great deal of product that makes for great gifts for the gardener in your life, but also has a lovely "gift shop" as well that contains product beyond plant life.

Cons

The vastly different environmental working conditions (extreme heat, cold, rain or shine) is sometimes difficult to plan for, especially if you expect to be working in one area of the store and end up somewhere else. Also the current increase in senior level management's expectations of seasonal employees responsibilities currently comes without pay compensation.
