Pros

Good place to get retail/management experience in college. Provides the opportunity to work in all areas of the stores and with all roles.

Cons

Low pay. As typical with most companies, interns were given the worst jobs and forced to perform the tasks that the management was unwilling to do.

Pros

Flexible work schedule if you are enrolled in college, great opportunities for lateral transfers, management was understanding (for part-time employees, anyway) about the occasional need for associates to work over scheduled hours b/c of customer demands and would make sure associates were sufficiently paid.

Cons

Poor opportunities for vertical transfers, some ill-mannered and dumb co-workers (although these were usually under age 21), even dumber customers, poor management and scheduling during expected peak customer traffic.
