Pros

Lots of opportunities to work independently and learn more about bookselling. If you're interested in something, you can usually find a way to get involved. Coworkers are great and very supportive.

Cons

Raises are 50 cents/year and starting pay is much lower than other bookstores in the Boston area. Management is hands-off to the point of absenteeism.
