Pros

It’s an upbeat environment depending on the store. It pays more than most minimum wage jobs. SFS is one of the easiest positions but one of the more stressful ones. If you don’t like staying in one place its a good position bc you’re constantly moving around the store. You will get your steps in for sure! I would walk around 5 miles every shift if not more on a super busy day. Our department used to be the best before it got so advanced and micromanaged. Free snacks every week or so and themed days in the break room.

Cons

Higher ups would get caught slacking off a lot while telling you to pick up the pace smh. They will not care about how impossible a task is in the time they want it done. There will be items that arent in the store that you’ll need to cancel and they will get upset as if you can manifest it out of thin air. OPUs can really suck. Never ever ever forget its a big corporation and they do not care for you, they will throw you under the bus the second you get hurt in their store and not care about you so try not to and if you do don’t let them bully you into not getting the help you need.

Pros

If you are looking for a job that you’ll be a part of a fun team environment, have the ability to learn all about customer “guest” service, retail operations and sales, as well as merchandising even at entry level great opportunity. for such a large corporation I have been pleasantly surprised by how tight knit teams are. applying was okay, there were multiple steps (videos, assessments) but overall not too bad)., phone call and then video questions before hiring.

Cons

Pay isn’t great, but for the market it’s fair. Moving up involves a much larger increase in responsibilities and workload relative to the pay increase.
