Pros

Good environment depending on your department and manager. Some managers are good there, others are not. Lot's of activities to help break the work day monotony.

Cons

The company values mean nothing depending on your department. There is lots of company politics, lying, cheating and playing games with the livelihood of the employees. They are also very reluctant to promote minorities into upper levels of management. While they attempt to promote inclusion, the true culture is no inclusive at all.

Cons

so much to do so little time, only 2 people working at a time unless shift change(overlaps). there is never enough time to do everything during the shift. so many customers so little time to do anything else

Pros

Customer interaction was the best part of this job. Although the pay sucked at least we all got paid weekly.

Cons

Pay, Heavy lifting, Management were all contributing factors to the downfall of the store due to the fact that this company is trying to be a mini walmart.
