Pros

20-30 percent discount $10 bra at start of job discount on new bras gratis: free makeup nad panties

Cons

not realiable when it comes to schedule changes. There have been instances where I was scheduled for a shift and i would get to work and a manager said they didn't need me. It was frustrating becuse i had to travel 45 minutes to get to work. I felt like they were stingy with hours and didn't have enough money to pay their employees for their time.
