Reviews about "minimum wage"

Pros
The atmosphere and staff were great and very friendly
Cons
One con is the pay, which was minimum wage and never increased despite my years at the job and positive reviews, and the typically small amount of hours worked. Driving to work 2-3 days a week for a 3 hour shift making minimum wage was almost not worth it.

Pros
Discount, cool coworkers, nice listening to music every day.
Cons
The higher ups understand selling by numbers and money but don't really understand it in a practical store sense. Not all stores are the same and the areas they are in. You can't just keep changing things and expect every store to be able to meet that standard. With minimum wage and awful hours there are some ways to majorly improve.
