Pros

If you stock the morning shift then you would usually get off work by the time customers came in so you didn't have to talk to anyone

Cons

Shifts would start anywhere from 2am - 7am depending on when the trucks would show up. I would often be on my way to work early in the morning and my manager would call me to say my shift is cancelled because the truck wasn't coming. My manager would push me to get too much stock work done my first month in and when I would miss my breaks to meet her expectations she would scold me for being irresponsible for risking getting her in trouble with upper management.

Pros

Relatively easy job, lots to keep you busy and moving if you hate a stationary job. Easy to keep moving up from this role. The right team will make this your favourite role! Perfect job if you enjoy being the solution for everyday problems (just get your pay's worth).

Cons

Far too many hats, as Michaels tends to understaff. Can be a real slog with lack of support for training and followup coachings for cashiers. Hard to recommend this job long-term due to typically low entry pay, and pay gaps in similar management roles caused by company decisions over the last half decade or so.
