Good Starting Point
Pros: -Incredibly easy to get hired
-Practically zero prior experience needed
-Typically good bosses
-The work is pretty straight forward
-Training is provided, and is satisfactory
-Depending on the location, regular raises do happen (they did for me, although slowly)
-Incredibly flexible hours
-Depending on location, great employee discounts
Cons: -The work is incredibly dull and after a couple of months becomes mind numbing
-There are quite a few rules that don't quite make sense (varies with location)
-Managers and supervisors are free to stick you into whatever position they want - back-end, cleaning dishes, organizing shelves, cleaning floors, wiping counters, cleaning lobby, cleaning lights, sweeping sidewalks outside, etc.
-Sometimes if you don't come in when they call and ask you to (to which saying no is totally allowed), managers tend to get mad nonetheless 
-Depending on the age of the store, and whether the store owner has kept it up well or not, the equipment in the sore can be incredibly inefficient to use, but you still have to put up with it 
-You will often will have to put up with stupid employees
