Pros

Help me to understand how not to manage, how important work life balance is, there are loyal people in the company that worked for me and made lasting realitionships.

Cons

No work life balance - managed through threat and fear. Unstable company with constant reduction of work force and stores. Found themsleves in a downward spiral and haven't been able to turn the corner and reinvent themsleves

Pros

At least it is a job and a flexible schedule. Thats about it.

Cons

Poor management. Never enough cashiers, too many stockers not trained for the register while certain areas go unattended due to the few of us that are register trained. No stock for sale items. Tired of apologizing to customers for being out of stock and for people having to wait for me to help becuase there is no one else in the entire store to help them.

Pros

Flexible with my schedule. I can ask time off for just about any day as long as I give proper notice in advance. It's an OK job to work at while in college.

Cons

Minimum wage... for 3 years. It's all about favorites of the management, no one else is promoted or given raises. (Even though the favorites are some of the downright dumbest people I've ever met.)
