Pros

Pay Benefits Incentives People Laid back atmosphere

Cons

Not many actually. The focus on certain metrics could get aggravating at times. For example, "you upsold a basket really well, but didn't get a credit card and membership...nice job, but shame on you. You need at least two this week. Let's have an impromptu retraining." Honestly though, as long as you offered or mentioned it to customers, you'd usually meet the minimum.

Pros

Flexible hours, employee perks such as discounted products, offers 401(k) despite being part-time, coworkers who are nice to work with.

Cons

Management is quick to call-out sales that have nothing attached to it (warranties, card applications, memberships, or accessories). There is a rodent problem that has not been addressed for nearly a year; food and beverages cannot be sold at this store.
