Pros

Very easy job that mostly consists of grabbing orders (BOPUS/SFS) and packing them. Another part of this job is being on the door and calling out suspicious activity or people so others can be on the look out and provide closer customer service to them. It’s okay, if you just need a part time job.

Cons

The pay is very low and it can be extremely boring at times. They are very pushy about credit cards. Unless you’re interested in working towards store management it would be hard to do this full time.

Pros

The job itself is like any other retail position. You deal with customer's outrageous demands as you just try to go about your business.

Cons

The push for surveys and credit cards. It's absurd how much they get on your back about pushing surveys about people's experience.
