Pros

Great insurance Work well with my school schedule

Cons

The list of things they want you to do is almost endless. As you stay with big 5 do not expect any sort of substantial raises. They do not have any intentions of trying to keep their employees. If you come to work for Big 5, plan on it only being a stepping stone to jobs that are more rewarding both financially and emotionally.
