Pros

The paychecks clear every time. Great place for the unemployed and those looking to sunset their careers to apply. (I'd keep looking for something better, though) Insurance is good, too.

Cons

Management and Leadership is incompetent. In 2009 a survey of employees was done which pointed out two issues. A Vice President was assigned to formulate a plan to fix those issues. She might as well have just vomited on herself. A year later, another survey was done. Guess what? SAME TWO MAIN ISSUES. So, in their infinite wisdom, they assigned the resolution to the SAME VP. Although they did resolve it in 2012 by not surveying everyone. Another example of incompetent leadership? The company is scrambling to put people all over town since they woke up one morning and realized they were out of space. How is it that leadership couldn't foresee that happening? Who is running the joint? If they can't figure out the growth of the company and how much space they need, they must be making money by mistake, too. Equally baffling is that investors haven't questioned that as well....

Pros

None. I was hired to be a person that restocks and cleans, they saw I was able to ring up and put me as a cashier.

Cons

Very little pay, terrible training, horrible management and some terrible customers. Disgusting location also, I went to a manager about toilet paper out in the women restroom, he told me it was a morning task. It was 7pm, the store closed at 11pm! Also CASHIERS ARE LYING YO CUSTOMERS TO GET THEM TO OPEN CREDIT CARDS! Shady stuff I heard as a cashier. Also during my interview no one showed up, when I called the manager made it seem like I was bugging her for my interview
