Pros

Nice co workers, and nice snacks in breakroom, customers are really cool, I like them and they like me.

Cons

Management is tired overworked, and often not knowing what the headboss really wants, kissing up to whoever is in charge seems to be prevalent amongst them. Expectations of new hires is too high,and intimidating them into quitting seems to be a cost effective measure for the stores, that have a tight budget and cannot afford to hire anyone new ,and pay the workers with seniority their salary. I can't help thinking this wasn't going on before the pandemic. Also why do people in the breakroom not talk to each other? Strangest thing I've ever seen... How come people don't get breaks or lunches together on occasion? Everyone is very lively and friendly with each other on the selling floor, but in the breakroom, everyone is quiet like someone died!! Weird atmosphere, and I don't understand it at all.

Pros

it is a job if you desperately need one

Cons

management does not keep promises (e.g. I was promised $2 higher pay upon accepting the position and later was told it wasn't feasible anymore once starting. I was also promised a specific day off then last minute had it revoked because they decided to make it a mandatory day). management does not listen to or care about its employees, very unprofessional. store managers don't want to do anything to help, they just sit in the office. management let other employees slack off and do nothing and expected others to compensate for their lack of effort general manager was horribly rude and misogynistic. he threw a box at someone while visiting.
