Pros

Its easy to get hired in, its unionized, and you can move up in the company if you so choose. If you're going to college they can be somewhat flexible with your schedule

Cons

The turn out rate is ridiculous. The managers will not listen to their own employees, the newer managers themselves have very little experience in managing. The work environment is not very fun. Sometimes there is not enough coverage for your department and your vacation days are denied.

Pros

Direct coworkers were great to work with. I also enjoyed being left to do my work and not babysat by management.

Cons

Management doesn't know what they are doing. Resets and floor plans were regularly not done properly. The store I worked at has a skeleton crew so I never got help (but was expected to stop everything I'm going to go help other departments/areas). Also meaning good luck to any customers needing help, especially when I was the only person working my area of the store, so when I wasn't there, no one was. Management also regularly disappeared into the offices or were on vacation. Also was terminated for reasons outside my control even though I was told they look at the reasons for attendance incidents before termination. Never got to get the FMLA or accommodation to my doctors before being terminated two days after I requested them. Didn't bother asking for a raise either. I did multiple times and got nothing.
