Pros

- I enjoyed shopping while on shift - Close team - Ability to move up in company

Cons

- Management were not afraid to cut hours (despite hard work ethic. Went from working 30 hours a week in December to only 8 hours a week in January. - It's difficult to track hours you work. The fact that managers could edit your timecards without you knowing made me feel really uneasy. I have no doubt they changed my hours as I was not getting paychecks that matched hours I worked. - Good luck getting any holidays off. They threatened to fire people for taking days off during "black out days" - Hired people because they needed bodies. You'll find 4 people on shift doing all the work with 10 other people on their phones just standing around.
