Pros

-You get to meet lots of friendly coworkers and make many friends. - they will work with your schedule - plenty of hours available (at least in,the media/tech department) due to constant employee turnover

Cons

- Some very rude and mean team leaders who would constantly micro-manage you so you couldn't even breathe without them staring at you - You're forced to join the union, even if part time. Union fees are quite high and stupid - This job is like a revolving door because they only pay $9/hour for a cashier when Walmart across the street is paying 11, 12 and even $13 an hour for less work!! - The "secruity" that works there acts like they are the sherriff of the city you live in. Get over yourselves you watch security cameras at a grocery store - As a media department worker, you will on more than one occasion be stuck running the entire department by yourself on a WEEKEND AFTERNOON. You will have 6 customers begging for your attention and you will be overwhelmed most of the day.

Pros

- Pickup is very chill and some days you can just hang out between orders (in the evenings mostly) - You can listen to music or podcasts while picking if you can still hear people / customers (Technically it's not allowed, but you can get away with it)

Cons

- Some days can be hell, and it's very variable - It's very physically draining - The schedule is never consistent
