I liked it but felt stuck

Pros

Great and competitive pay, flexible hours, and a fun atmosphere.

Cons

It's hard to move up, even if you've expressed interest in it. I ended up leaving because even though I had expressed i wanted to be moved up to Customer Service they flat out told me that unless I had a "connection" they wouldn't do it. Or basically they only promote their favorites.

Deli Clerk

Pros

Flexible schedule if you change availability.

Cons

Unfair discriminatory wages for women (previous work experience taken into account), almost impossible to change departments if you're in the deli, shifts often set less than 8 hours apart (e.g. closing shift to 12am, scheduled at 6am the next day), and usually short staffed (at least my store is), and very hard to advance.
