Pros

The job was easy and the managers did a good job running the store. They worked around my schedule and always gave me time off when I needed it (I was a high school student).

Cons

The pay was low relative to other similar jobs in the industry. However, compared to the work and responsibilities it wasn't too bad.

Pros

The people I worked with were the best reason for staying at Kmart. Management was also understanding of the fact that my employment at Kmart was a second job and they did not make any unreasonable requirements of me.

Cons

Ever since quitting Kmart, I have told everybody I have come in contact with that I never worked so hard in my life for so little pay. I understand that Kmart is a revolving door when it comes to employees, but I would hope that a company would recognize and reward loyal employees by compensating them, but alas, that was not the case.

Pros

Employees are kind caring motivated indviduals who love to come in everyday with a smile on there face. Not really, that was a joke. But some employees are managable while others, you can tell, feel like there in hell.

Cons

Its has the worst pay rates, ther is no opportunity for advancement, i know people who have been there many many many years and make barely over what my beginning rate was
