      Local and easy transportation to and from, by metro bus.

      Alot of issues such as maintenance and fixtures, computers were too old to properly perform during transactions, causing alot of customer dissatisfaction. Inventory storage was unorganized due to space.

      I have never worked for a place that overlooks potential in their employees the way Kmart does.

      Pros

      Flexible schedule. Friendly co-workers. Light workload. Easy to master the POS system. Customers are generally decent, and management backs you up if they step out of line.

      Cons

      Extremely poor communication company wide. Huge changes (such as the store staying open an hour later) will be posted on the bulletin board, and that's it. Nearly impossible to move up in the company, raises are basically out of the question. No full time positions available (they are already taken by the 20+ year veterans). Upper management (beyond store level) is a waste of space, with nothing helpful or positive to say EVER, and I'm certain they suck up a huge share of the meager company profits.
