Pros

Everyone I've worked with has been very kind towards me. The managers in store are very personable and understanding of flexibility or mistakes on the job. It's a very warm environment and it's full of really great people.

Cons

Hours have always been extremely inconsistent. I don't rely on this job to pay for the necessities, but there are a number of people who do and will be struggling to make ends meet now that cuts have been made. Majority of the workers in my department have gone from working 25-30 hours per week to being lucky their scheduled more than 5 or 6 hours. It's extremely disheartening to see the department go to bare minimum staffing, and it makes me genuinely sad for some of my coworkers.

Pros

This was one of my first jobs as a teenager and I felt it was a good starting point. The other employees were friendly and the work was appropriate for a minimum wage job.

Cons

Not any I can think of.

Pros

The scheduling as a seasonal employee is fairly flexible, I've never had trouble getting the time off so long as I request it prior to the schedule going out. The employee discount is also nice as Bachman's has a great deal of product that makes for great gifts for the gardener in your life, but also has a lovely "gift shop" as well that contains product beyond plant life.

Cons

The vastly different environmental working conditions (extreme heat, cold, rain or shine) is sometimes difficult to plan for, especially if you expect to be working in one area of the store and end up somewhere else. Also the current increase in senior level management's expectations of seasonal employees responsibilities currently comes without pay compensation.
