Pros

Great discounts, honest work, and a chance to share something you love (books) with people.

Cons

Greenwashing, full-time employment is only 35 hours a week, skills learned do not really help anywhere else, cronyism, and an alarming number of customers who have no interest in books.

Great coworkers. Get quarterly bonus checks. Not a super hard job.

Mangement is kinda iffy and they really require you to do a lot more work than you're paid for.
