management offers praise to motivate their staff, you are offered work shops to increase your knowledge allowing to better assist customers.

Cons

can be difficult (schedule wise) for parents, expect to work saturdays, sundays, holidays, must be able to lift heavy loads ( 20 lbs maybe )

Pros

I liked working at Sears because I liked doing sales, my coworkers were average, my bosses were pretty nice, letting me have time off if I need it.

Cons

Well my main complaint is that after I transferred to a new Sears store, I became sick and was promptly let go, even though I handled the situation responsibly and according to store policy.
