Pros

This job was a dream come true. I love the atmosphere, what the company strived for, the cute displays. I didn't even mind the fast paced work and constant overbearing work-load. I thought it was fun, a constant race against time against the new truck that would come and clog our backroom the next week. This place paid me very well but only because of the STL that hired me in believed in hiring for retainment and offered a great starting pay.

Cons

Confused Corporate. They would constantly send two or three different display sets and then decide all of them were supposed to go in the same place yet not allow mixing of sets. The culture is incredibly cliquey, if you're not in with upper management, you're out. You will get the cold shoulder, they will refuse to speak to you. If you perform poorly in their eyes you will hear about it but only because upper management thought it was appropriate to approach part-timers and associates instead of communicating directly. It's incredibly childish and high-school like.

Pros

Salary isn’t terrible, your peers are helpful and available for problem solving. Benefits are there, nothing to speak highly on, 3 holidays they recognize for paid holiday. But they do offer benefits to FT employees. No sick accumulation pto days tho. Can be a very fun and interesting job. It’s a very clean and inviting store to come into.

Cons

Tasks are hard to stay on top of and complete with in a timely manner. Trucks are heavy with product and have no locations. finding employees to work part time and be productive is difficult at times. Older products are never usually marked down to sell through so it’s always building up in the stock room. Someone calls in there’s not a lot of employees (2 FT and 3 PT total) you are always required to stay if there’s no one to cover. They don’t pay much over minimum wage for entry level positions, finding the perfect fit with the right qualifications for that amount of money, is a full time job itself. No OT is ever allowed for store coverage. Heavily loaded with POG changes and seasonal change overs are becoming more often than not anymore. They allow extra hours to help with completing. Usually just enough to work your other tasks and just get started good on change overs before they drop another few.
