Pros

Activities offered for free, even though most times you will be to busy to enjoy them. Good employee discount especially during the off season.

Cons

6day work weeks, must work both open and closing shifts, so you may be at a store until 11pm and open at 9am the next morning. Weekly management meetings where you may be up in 10 departments but may be made to feel beaten down if you are down in one or two. The 6 day weeks mean you will be tired from working 6 days straight with one day off for 14 weeks straight so you will be to tire to even enjoy the beach around you. Off season you will have 1-2 days a week of work given to you if your store is one that closes like most do. You can ask for things you want your store to carry, but good luck getting it if you're not one of the Nags Head locations. Smaller stores will also be the last to get hot items in stock, so at the weekly meetings you will be made to feel small for sales being down in areas where you have not received the newest items.
