Pros

Was an easy job in hindsight

Cons

I don’t think i’ll even have enough words to describe. You could say the food & gift cards to their TJX stores or dunkin that they gave us was a “pro” besides for the fact that it was a distraction to the fact that they couldn’t afford to pay us more even thought it is a billion dollar company, then they ended up having to not schedule people for weeks due to them not having enough money. You’d expect a manager to step in and help when they see this workers drowning in work that’s for more than the 5 people they schedule in a shift to do everything. Not helping around the store, not helping that the registers, disappeared for hours with no words. Would do ANYTHING for us to not call managers up fro the front for help & when we did really need the help they’d take 10 minutes, during a BUSY saturday morning shift. Wouldn’t recommend to anyone. The easiest job i had ended up being the most draining. They only cared about doing things that would make them look good even if it meant breaking policies for awful customers because they demanded to, making the cashiers look dumb and them like the “hero” . Every.Time. And the petty manger I had would pick and choose which people he liked and talked about the ones he didn’t to the others. As a 30+ year old man and 90% his workers being from 16-20s.

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.
