      Pros

      Fellow crew members are supportive The crew is regularly feed and able to try products The company donates the majority of spoils to local organizations The crew members are able to give management "anonymous" job appraisals

      Cons

      Management is lazy You're entire day is micromanaged down to what time you take lunch to what time you can go to the bathroom Sexism and ageism in hourly pay rates Making friends and having a conversation is looked down upon as they want you to work as hard as possible for the smallest amount of money Schedule cutbacks during slow seasons

      Pros

      -Great way to meet people, socialize, and learn customer service -Always tasked with different things every hour -Friendly crew who will always help you to learn and get better at your job -Get a slight pay raise every 6 months -No outside commitments and amazing benefits if you work full time (about 28 hours a week for every 6 months) -Will take time, but find your friend group, stay with them and have fun, you can't please everybody -Care for your body, do not overdo it with physical labor, its a retail job and you only have one fragile body for yourself, get help or insist about your pains

      Cons

      -Not many, unless you are stuck in a bad store with bad management -I had some good luck of working in 3 great stores, so YMMV -Sometimes can get cliquey like you are back in high school -Getting promoted up to store management may involve buttering up and being a "yes-person" -Care for your body, do not overdo it with physical labor, its a retail job and you only have one fragile body for yourself, get help or insist about your pains
