Pros

They seem to hire anyone during the Holiday season and they don't turn you down for having colored hair or tattoos.

Cons

They pay you minimum wage with a maximum of 15 hours a week so they don't have to offer benefits. They don't offer a set schedule so you can't get another job, and when I asked if I could limit my hours to certain days a week so I could get another job I was told that the company doesn't approve of employees having second jobs. You have to pay for your own uniforms. Orientation was weird. They spend an uncomfortable amount of time telling you how evil unions are. When I tried to quit they put me on 'academic leave' for a year instead. Just let me leave.

Pros

If you are looking for a job that you’ll be a part of a fun team environment, have the ability to learn all about customer “guest” service, retail operations and sales, as well as merchandising even at entry level great opportunity. for such a large corporation I have been pleasantly surprised by how tight knit teams are. applying was okay, there were multiple steps (videos, assessments) but overall not too bad)., phone call and then video questions before hiring.

Cons

Pay isn’t great, but for the market it’s fair. Moving up involves a much larger increase in responsibilities and workload relative to the pay increase.
