Pros

I worked there as a cashier for a summer job and it was bland, not too exciting. It was easy though, took less then a few hours to get the hang of working the cash register and bagging doesn't really take any brain power. The customers there are usually a lot more talkative and nicer than other places like walmart so its easy to engage in a conversation while scanning items.

Cons

I would recommend working there for a part-time summer job. It gets boring really fast doing the same thing over and over again and managers sometimes standing right over your shoulder. They also aren't clear on when the breaks are to be taken so you kind of feel like a kid asking every time you go into work.

Pros

If you are looking for a job that you’ll be a part of a fun team environment, have the ability to learn all about customer “guest” service, retail operations and sales, as well as merchandising even at entry level great opportunity. for such a large corporation I have been pleasantly surprised by how tight knit teams are. applying was okay, there were multiple steps (videos, assessments) but overall not too bad)., phone call and then video questions before hiring.

Cons

Pay isn’t great, but for the market it’s fair. Moving up involves a much larger increase in responsibilities and workload relative to the pay increase.
