Pros

Good, cheap health insurance. In some positions, very easy. Can get by without doing a whole lot. Very unlikely to get fired, especially once you make full time.

Cons

Pay is often very low for the work expected. However, your mileage may vary. There is a lot of favoritism, and no standard payscale, so some people get paid significantly more to do the same job. It is basically up to the store director. Its retail.. so working holidays, weekends, dealing with customers, etc. Putting up with the class of employees who have fanatical devotion to the company, and therefore will not admit or acknowledge things that need to be improved.

Pros

Paid breaks. Can be lazy and get the same pay as a hard worker.

Cons

Your high efforts are not rewarded. Benefits only include the time you put into retail that can be considered experience. Although you have the title for a specific position you will still be forced to complete tasks of another position. Although I was a checker, I was also put on hot food line, samples, cart duty, cleaning bathrooms, cleaning spills, watching self check out, stocking, and many more. Any sense of enjoyment with other coworkers gets shut down quick by management. Availability can be ignored by management. Lots of drama with coworkers. No penalty for inappropriate and unprofessional work. Management cares about business more than employees even though it is “employee owned”.
