Pros

They are very fair about time-off requests. Co-workers are really nice and manager and supervisors are generally down to earth and treat you with respect. It is a fun job if you love retail. The discount is great, you get a discount on even clearance merchandise and you can also use that with your coupons. If a customer says something good about you they give you a $5 coupon to use in the store. The clothes are priced low enough. If you work hard and have a good manager you will get good hours and even be at full time hours. Better retail job than most.

Cons

Low hours and low pay.

Pros

If you like working early morning hours and getting off early in the afternoon (which I do) this is a great part-time job. I was a college student when I worked here so it worked perfectly with my schedule. The pay is pretty decent and the people you work with are friendly.

Cons

Only real downside is that it's retail. You're going to run into some rude customers from time to time. There's always work to do and not enough time given to do it sometimes. But as long as you work hard and managers see that you're trying your best there isn't too much pressure put on you.
