Pros

Great management Great training Great discount, 30% off you get to have reward parties for excellent sales from your store

Cons

I would have to say the number one con of working at a cost plus store would be the wide array of products they offer. Customers would come in and ask me for products that I have never even heard of.

Pros

The pay was good. That's about it.

Cons

Lack of a work/life balance; lack of support from field management; lack of support from human resources; everything is all about the cost plus "culture", which probably part of the reason that they are in such financial trouble.

Because of the wide selection in merchandise the physicality of stocking, displaying, storing and servicing the customer can be a challenge.
