Pros

I enjoyed working here while I was in college. Started out part time and eventually got full time. Very flexible with my work schedule due to school. Most of the managers were fun to work with and appreciated their coworkers. The whole store had a good sense of team work and was very relaxed and laid back place to work.

Cons

It's retail so you have to work most weekends and holidays. Work schedule changes week to week so you have to plan everything accordingly. The base pay for new coworkers should be more.

Pros

I have a very empathetic and flexible manager. Although I do meet the requirement to be in office three days a week many others do not and don’t seem to suffer for it. My work can be challenging at times, but due to the slow pace of most things here I rarely feel overwhelmed.

Cons

This is, without equivocation, the most sclerotic organization I have ever been a part of. The management structure and reporting lines are inscrutable and even after 3 years I barely understand how my team fits into the larger picture. My job is a data role, and although getting access to data has improved somewhat, it is still one of my biggest blockers.
