      Pros

      Employee discounts are good. Advancement is there if you work hard. They like to promote from within.

      Cons

      It's retail so you work weekends, nights, and holidays. Salary based on mandatory overtime every week. Retirement benefits are a joke. No raises in more than a year. Medical benefits(which used to be free) are now costing employees money.

      Pros

      Most employees were really fun to work with, life/work balance was great, taught me good life skills, good first job for work experience.

      Cons

      Barely got scheduled (pretty sure my location was way over employed), occasional rude and entitled costumers (especially during the holidays), could get very slow and boring at times, sketchy area, overal, not a great job if you're looking for something that pays well.
