Need higher pay
Pros: As far as retail jobs go, management does care about you as an employee (for the most part). Benefits are top notch. Fast paced work environment.
Cons: Work Life balance is very poor, especially in one of the bigger stores. Its very difficult to plan vacations, time off. The hours are all over the place. Its exhausting to have a constantly changing work schedule. 
The hourly wages are far too low. These jobs are far from mindless, they require dedication, a ton of product/policy knowledge, and various strong personality traits yet the pay is equal to working at other retailers and far less than the standard "office job". 

There is also virtually no upward movement available if you are at Genius/Manager level unless you are very lucky.
