Pros

Decent pay ($9.09/hour in my area) Opportunities to pick up more few extra hours For the most part, flexible with scheduling After only working here for 6 months I realized I need to continue pursuing my education and get good grades because I can NOT do this as a career Employee discount

Cons

8-10 hour shifts of standing in one place This may not be for every target but my workplace wouldn't really allow me to take Sunday mornings off (said I was available after 1) In my opinion, one 30 minute lunch after standing for 7 or more hours is not enough time.

Pros

If you are looking for a job that you’ll be a part of a fun team environment, have the ability to learn all about customer “guest” service, retail operations and sales, as well as merchandising even at entry level great opportunity. for such a large corporation I have been pleasantly surprised by how tight knit teams are. applying was okay, there were multiple steps (videos, assessments) but overall not too bad)., phone call and then video questions before hiring.

Cons

Pay isn’t great, but for the market it’s fair. Moving up involves a much larger increase in responsibilities and workload relative to the pay increase.
