Great culture, not so great job
Pros: The people, benefits, and discounts. Can be easy to transfer to another store if you're moving.
Cons: The hours are ridiculous if you're part-time. You'll still work 5 days a week but only 4 or 5 hours a day with some periods of working close to full-time hours until they need to scale you back so you don't automatically get moved to a full-time employee. You have to deal with some of the worst customers who are ungrateful, rude, entitled, and will snap at anything. It can be near impossible to get promoted depending on the store you work in. If you work in a popular store, the role you're applying for will likely go to a transfer instead so. The pay raises and reviews are an absolute joke. The company will act like you are the most important thing ever, but I think this really only applies if you work at corporate. You'll spend all your time trying to get into corporate but you'll have to be there for a long time, kiss a lot of behind, or you'll be stuck in retail forever.
