Pros

There are no pros to working for this company.

Cons

Completely Unprofessional Atmosphere Employees Gossip Untidy/Dirty Horrible Customer Service Unreliable Management Two-Faced Management Point System Lack-of-Power for Cashiers 10 Minutes Breaks and "being forced" to work through Meals Big Brother is ALWAYS watching Too MUCH Drama Overly-Involved Employees Lying Management Careless Employees (On a personal note: I was told that a leave of absence for school didn't exist. So I asked to cut my hours back to the bare minimum. They agreed. However, after a few months of being school I was told I HAD to work more than 8 hours a week. Even though in the employee handbook it states 8 hours is all that is needed. I then mentioned that a leave of absence doesn't exist, and then I was told it does exist. They just didn't want to offer it to me. The store manager lied to me. They also don't understand what a 2 weeks notice means and continued to put me on the schedule)
