Pros

Nothing I can think of

Cons

Poor management, understaffed intentionally, zero training other than: "do your cashier CBL's," filthy work environment, expectations way above paygrade. No communication, highly dysfunctional managers, absent DM.

Pros

Good health insurance and work a teenager is capable of

Cons

Not enough hours are given to keep the store open and stock so as the salaried human in the building i work 70+ hours over 6 days every week. Can't really shock or get the huge load of extra tasks done if you are the only person there until 3pm.
