Pros

Great selection of merchandise and aesthetics. It was a fun atmosphere at first.

Cons

The gourmet department head was considered a full-time position, yet the maximum hours allowed were only 36 hours. Shifts were 6.5 to 7 hours and with a lunch break, and your whole day was shot. It was like working an 8 hour job, but without the pay or benefits. There were no benefits for this full-time position.

Pros

being the cashier during the holidays was super fun. it was busy but in a way where the time goes by fast.

Cons

the manager micromanages and sits in the back watching the cameras the whole time. she then tells the supervisor on the walkie talkie that she's watching you. everybody talks about how they hate her even the assistant managers.
