Pros

My coworkers were very pleasant. We had just opened a brand new store when I was there so I'm not sure if all Home Goods do this, but sometimes the managers would bring doughnuts which I thought was nice.

Cons

Way too demanding for minimum wage and no opportunity for advancement. I also didn't like how they randomly "promoted" an employee who hardly worked the cash wrap to be a lead. They didn't ask anyone or announce it, just did it at random. He would stand there and just watch us a ring and bag. No real additional duties to justify the $1.00/hour pay increase. There was also an assistant manager who grabbed my arm once and then put her hands on my shoulders to "get my attention" Totally inappropriate. Use words not your body!
