Pros

The other people that work there are pretty friendly and training is thorough if not too long. Better than too short though. For the most part, management is nice and gets behind their employees when they do a good job. They really try to work with your schedule, no matter how strict it is.

Cons

The pay is minimal. Don't really expect much more from a retail company though. Also, communication between different departments is poor as is common with most jobs, I guess.

Pros

If you like working early morning hours and getting off early in the afternoon (which I do) this is a great part-time job. I was a college student when I worked here so it worked perfectly with my schedule. The pay is pretty decent and the people you work with are friendly.

Cons

Only real downside is that it's retail. You're going to run into some rude customers from time to time. There's always work to do and not enough time given to do it sometimes. But as long as you work hard and managers see that you're trying your best there isn't too much pressure put on you.
