Pros

Casual dress code and friendly co-workers, everyone has fun talking to each other and joking around.

Cons

You are expected to do more than just your job, and most employees are paid minimum wage. No raise ever, very few opportunities to move up in the company. You will be expected to do everyone else's job in addition to your own.

Pros

The location was close to where I reside.

Cons

Poor Management! Archaic Computer systems. Inefficient policies and procedures. Horrible benefits and non competitive salary. Excessive employee turnover with many positions never refilled. Morale at an all time low!, no career path, and most importantly NO WORK/LIFE BALANCE. Sears doesn't care about you or your family and feels you should be happy that you have a job. They want you to sell you soul! You would make more on unemployment after you do the math!
