Pros

Pay is alright OK hours Mostly fun workers

Cons

Doesn't pay time and a half on holidays, their claim to why they don't, "we're retail" every other retail stores offer time and a half on holidays. Upper management sucks. Overly critical and uptight. Store director seems to be the only nice one. Cutting hours of part time employees b/c they don't want to pay insurance or benifits for them. Averaged 35 hrs or so since our store opened, know my manager is changing our hours down to 25 b/c of the healthcare law changing.

Pros

Paid breaks. Can be lazy and get the same pay as a hard worker.

Cons

Your high efforts are not rewarded. Benefits only include the time you put into retail that can be considered experience. Although you have the title for a specific position you will still be forced to complete tasks of another position. Although I was a checker, I was also put on hot food line, samples, cart duty, cleaning bathrooms, cleaning spills, watching self check out, stocking, and many more. Any sense of enjoyment with other coworkers gets shut down quick by management. Availability can be ignored by management. Lots of drama with coworkers. No penalty for inappropriate and unprofessional work. Management cares about business more than employees even though it is “employee owned”.
