Pros

Has a great system that if followed makes the job easy. Pay is competitive for the area. Weekly pay is always a bonus. Can earn up to 5K in bonuses a year.

Cons

Payroll hours are low. While associate pay is fair, you can not keep good employees at 15 hours a week.

Pros

There are no pros for working for this company. The store manager promotes Key holders within 2 wks of being hired. So theres no training and she rehires employee whom she has fired for theft. If your not kin too her in some way, you wont be there long. In the 7 mos ive been there we have around 10 or more employees come and go.

Cons

The pay is low and the hours that schedule you for isnt enough to live on. Thats why there is a revolving door. If your not kin to store manager you get no perks.
