How is it working at Modells?

Pros

Everyone who works here are very friendly with each other and everyone gets along. As long as you do your job and what you're told, you shouldn't have any problems.

Cons

The breaks are decent but sometimes feel too short. When working 6 hours or less, you get a 15 min break and whenever you work over 6 hours, you get a 30 min break. The mangers are constantly making rule changes like telling us we can not switch shifts with someone if something comes up on a day we were scheduled to work. They are also putting the schedule out on Saturdays sometimes which makes it hard to make plans for a Sunday because you don't find out your hours until you go in Saturday, if you even work on that Saturday. The managers also constantly complain about how friendly everyone is to each other and tell us we aren't able to socialize or have a group chat with everyone in it so we can hang out one day. The managers also expect us to be free every day we aren't scheduled and when they call and ask if you can come in and you can't, they get angry at you for making plans on a day you weren't supposed to work.

It was a great working environment. Managers were easy to get along with for the most part.

Pros

You'll enjoy employees 20% off discount. You get to interact with people from different backgrounds. If you prove yourself as a good worker you'll get promoted to cashier/ head cashier. Gain customer service experience.

Cons

Short break or lunch time (30 mins). Not a lot of growth opportunities. Doesn't pay well. Store gets extremely busy around holidays and back-to-school. Have to be able to multi-task. Not a lot of employees or help is there at times, have to learn to work alone and deal with customers.
