I worked here during the summer

Sales associate/cashier

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

My coworkers were polite and were willing to help out any time I had a question.

Cons

I was studying, taking summer courses at my university while working, which meant that I had to take a few exams. During my finals season, I experienced some pushback when I needed to switch shifts so that I could take my exam. Luckily I had a coworker who was willing to switch with me, but there was unecessary stress.

Business Outlook

Pros

Flexible work shifts and choice of store location.

Cons

Disrespectful staffs. Tenured team members treats new hires like they are paid to do their share of job and are not willing to guide newer colleagues. Toxic work environment with people talking bad about whoever leaves the room only to have themselves talked about the minute they leave. Management is not bothered and often seen lying down on the long bench in the break area. They do not reply to work queries if we are ever unsure and need assistance. They would push us to another and we end up not getting any answer.
