Pros

The remote days we used to have. The people are nice and if you can put up with staying longer theres is a good chance of moving up from within. Good representation among employee groups.

Cons

They will take away benifits while telling you employees asked for it. I had two remote days a week when I started. They took away one last year and this year they took the other. You dont get company match for 401k investments until a year in. Instead of meaninful raises you will be advertised to by companies who give out free samples in the lobby and this will be presented as a perk. You will not be trained and will have to learn how to do the job on your own.

Pros

It wasnt the best job honestly but it was a good place to work if you like a fast paced environment. My boss was absolutely wonderful and she did the best she could with minimal power and control over staffing on a local store level

Cons

It was horrible in terms of staffing they could have done so much better instead of leaving to a high stress low empathy environment where we were bombarded by customers constantly and had to manage customer intake along with stocking
