Pros

Flexible hours, raises based on hours worked, union, Department heads can be reasonable people 10% discount on some store brand items.

Cons

Management changes often and seams disorganized, little training offered for the job your going to do. Pay is slow to raise with only nickle and dime raises for the first four raises. you basically have to work all holidays. And the only day the store is closed is Christmas. Also a company that made $1.5 Billion can only give its employees a 10% discount on store brand items only.
