Pros

Nice Team Members, Used My Pronouns and Preferred Name.

Cons

Supervisors don't talk to each other and each have a different way they tell you to do your job, even if it doesn't follow the little training we were given. For example, I was trained to use a chemical on products only to later find out that same chemical requires gloves and mask to use and minimum use, and I was using that for over 6 months with no safety gear and consistently per the instruction of my supervisor. People also come and go a lot, especially right before bonuses they will lay people off.

Pros

The pros...well I honestly can't think of any besides my coworkers. They made my time there somewhat tolerable.

Cons

Unrealistic expectations of employees to meet goals such as stocking clothing, sorting, putting items out on the floor etc. Treat their employees crummy, all they seem to recognize is the negative. They steal from employees, paying for less time than was worked...make sure you check you hours against the hours they have. They mislead about holiday pay. Make sure you have a clear understanding of this or you will be working the holidays without any extra pay. They love to give write-ups. Don't allow employees to make an announcement when it's close to closing time which forces employees to stay later than their scheduled shift. So rather than getting out by 10 p.m. it was 10:30 or 11 more often than not.
