Pros

If you're young and like to be in a busy store it can be more fun than other jobs. It may also be very convenient for you depending on your schedule and location.

Cons

low pay and can be loads of work. Your experience will be all about what days and shifts you work, and your location. Some locations are always packed, overcrowded, and really are in need of being remodeled to be much larger. But even at that, some of the larger locations are packed on weekends, holidays, or special sales events. So you will either be really bored or really busy. If you're a hard worker you will be irritated when you see "cliques" getting away with pretending to do work but they are actually just standing around.
