Pros

Benefits only - tuition reimbursement especially.

Cons

no respect whatsoever but in fariness this is across the board and there is no discrimination here. There is just flat no repsect period, not even among and between managers which is so sad. But wait a minute we do have one manager who transferred in not long ago who actually shows respect to everyone. He is the only one.

Pros

The customers there were wonderful to talk to

Cons

Had to quit due to team leads aggressive attitude towards me. Also favoritism issues. I can tell they didn't like me since day 1. Today they came to me rudely about mistakes I made instead of doing it professionally. I haven't been there for long and I was still learning. I made a lot of improvements which I was really happy about, but was still learning. As much as I liked working there, the team lead was very rude/unprofessional towards me and it was so bad to the point I had to leave. The same team lead followed me outside and said "good" that I was leaving (in front of customers too). I was improving a lot in the position, I want to hear constructive criticism, but not like this. I was hoping to grow with the store and the company but unfortunately its not meant to be. This could've been 100% been prevented if only they would came to me professionally about this and I would be more than happy to fix any mistakes and do better in the future. But if this is how they treat their coworkers I do not wish to be a part of that toxic culture and headspace. Do better.
