Pros

They give me all the hours I ask for, sometimes more. They know the jobs I like to do and will schedule me for them. They ALWAYS give you the days you ask for off. Pay is better than most kids get at my age. The relationship between management and employees is a friendly one in which we can joke and be open with each other. Management care and congratulates employees on achievements like graduating, getting married, or having a baby. The people who work there are what make it truly amazing. The management REALLY care about what they do. Which makes it easy for me to REALLY care about what I do.

Cons

Sometimes the customers can be a little helpless or ungrateful. Sometime we forget that the customers aren't pros on the store like we are and it's aggravating when they ask dumb questions like where is the bread. When the sign says where the bread is. Really is a battle to get carry out. Sometimes you have to ask 2 or 3 times before the customer will let you take them out to their car. It's kind of hard to move up from bagger to cashier, you pretty much have to beg. Sometimes the customers are a little too in your face. It's hard to put up with. The uniforms are a little thick which makes it extra hot in the summer time in florida. also during reviews I feel that they purposely keep the score low so they don't give you a big raise. but that could just be me.

Very fast paced so time flies by. Good relationships with others and a sense of teamwork.

Cons

Hours are not very good...Many nights end after 1 in the morning. Lots of week end work. Lots of standing.
