Pros

working with the public isn't to bad, depending on where your store is located.

Cons

they work you to death, lucky to get a break of any kind, the District Managers all suck and i feel are born from pods, the company does not care about ANY of its employees at all, they expect more than the 2 people on duty can do, there is only 2 people on duty at any one time (one manager and one cashire), their pay rate sucks and trying to get a raise is almost impossible,

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.
