Pros

Not the worst payment for an hour in the zone, big company, it´s ok if you are young and plan to do some studies next, like a temporary thing to earn any money

Cons

almost impossible to get a free day when you need it, you have to work some hours for free or you are fired

Great room for advancement

Pros

Lots of advancement opportunities. Supportive store and district management. Different roles available to suit different strengths. Pretty good benefits with full time employment. Pay in line with what other companies offer.

Cons

Major disconnect between store and head office levels. Buyers and other above store level employees seem to often not understand what goes on at a store level and therefore make the jobs much harder for store employees. Very few people in head office have education specific to their job - a majority have simply moved up from store level positions and it shows. Company can be very nostalgic which usually doesn't fare well business-wise. Very little room for advancement after store manager level.

Pros

Sometimes they buy you lunch. Good learning experience.

Cons

Managers expect you to do things without any direction or guidance, for someone who is a new employee or new to the work force, this is very bad. They also micro manage every little thing. Constantly skipping breaks to keep up with work load. Some associates on the floor also are not allowed to take breaks until they finish their work.
