Pros

You get a little bit of freedom to use your creativity when merchandising. I hear that management gets payed well. No 2 days are the same.

Cons

*sigh* I really don't like to complain or bash a company but people need to know what to expect. Like many retail stores, there are very many demands with very little pay. In the 3 years that I have been working here, I have seen no less than 10 (probably many more) employees fired for theft. I'm disgusted with the caliber of person I have to work with here.

Hectic work

Pros

The people I met at work are great for the most part. The variety of merchandise is fun to view and display.

Cons

The lazy workers are kept on the registers while the hard working ones work their behinds off for their entire shift doing returns and picking up after the sloppy customers. It gets tiring after a while. If you annoy the manager in any way then you can expect your hours to be cut to the bare minimum.

Absolutely deplorable

Pros

One of the three managers was tolerable. And there are chances to win a HomeGoods gift card every week or so if you win a "Star" card.

Cons

This was an absolutely miserable place to work. As I was in college, trying to make money to pay for my education, I worked here as a cashier. The managers were incredibly condescending. At one point, one of them even had the audacity to drop the F-bomb on me for a petty mistake I made. Within the first few weeks of working there, I broke down crying--not from an unpleasant customer (which is quite frequent), but from the unbelievable disrespect from the management. And I saw 5 other coworkers cry from the management. The managers were unbelievably insensitive and took out their anger on their employees, as if we had no dignity. In addition, the schedules change every week. At the time, I was balancing three jobs, so some weeks I would work 20 hours and the next week I would be assigned 3 hours. Perhaps upper-level positions are better, but it's overall a miserable atmosphere for a "HomeGoods Happy" place.
