Working here was a lot of fun but incredible exhausting!
Pros: The management really wants you to be the best you can be within your title, before moving up to any other position. They are very focused and dedicated to expanding your knowledge on all the products, and give you time to study the products or anything you feel needs brushing up on. They are very lenient with days off, as long as you request them a few weeks in advance, and they are very adamant on answering your requests within a day. The pay is good for a retail store, however, for the amount of money the company makes, mostly because of their retail store employees, the pay should be more. The managers for the most part care a lot about their employees and treat them like equals, they are very friendly and helpful and good at listening and responding to the employees suggestions and feedback. All the employees in the store really love doing what they do.
Cons: Being part time felt like a full time job, it was exhausting. The customers, although a nice chunk of them are interesting and fun to interact with, are mostly annoying, non-English speakers who yell at you and get frustrated at you for not speaking their language. The pay is good for a retail store, however, for the amount of money apple makes, mostly because of their retail store employees, the pay should be more. The training is very tedious and time consuming for a retail store, but understandable given the amount of customers and questions you have to deal with everyday.
