Pros

gain experience good people managers arent too bad depending on department/ job title good hours if you show you work hard

Cons

sometimes management can expect too much from employees, asking them to do too much cashier overturn rate is high, credit application/swyr based pay is minimum wage mostly and not much room for raise possibilities hour cuts can be brutal (3 hrs/week for some employees)

Pros

Easy work and Fun at times.

Cons

Managers are temperamental and angry. Overall, it is not all too bad but then again not all too good. I'd only recommend it as a job for someone with few other options. As far as working as a cashier goes it is not terrible but not outstanding either.

Pros

Everyone who works here gets a long great for the most part. Although, some people tend to think that once they reach the service desk, that they run the store.

Cons

You get very short breaks, most of the shifts are only 4-6 hours, you never get 40 hours a week unless you are managment, and you have to deal with rude customers constantly, and you can tell them you would like to try a different department, but they never follow up on your request.
