Pros

-The store is closed on Sundays so you can generally plan on not coming in that day although sometimes there are shifts available on Sundays for inventory and special projects -The pay when I worked there was about 50 cents above minimum wage

Cons

-Management kept me at 33 hours per week to avoid promoting me to full time which would have nearly doubled my pay and offered me health care -Management in general is incompetent, egotistical, and lazy -You are discouraged from taking your full (legally required) break time -Tiny infractions can lead to write ups or termination

Pros

You get flexible hours, so there’s some consistency. You do get a holiday bonus, but it’s also taxed.

Cons

They will have you doing anything and everything, but a consistent workload. You have to keep track of so many things, so many rules that it can be taxing. Management can see you opportunistically, so just be courteous and leave when you have to.
