Our head manager was not very understanding with giving time off. For example, at one point, someone had to take a day off because of a family emergency, the management would see them as unreliable and give them less shifts. The atmosphere in "the back" was that of, they wanted us to basically live there, if you used public transportation, and for some reason it was late, they would get mad at you and possibly give you a coaching, or, if you were on your probation period, just let you go entirely. Part timers were usually treated badly in regards to shifts and availability, they say that they "hire based on availability", so if you happen to have something going on later in life, there's a pretty good chance that they would just let you go rather than trying to fit you somewhere else in the store. Management is very rigid, they don't care about you or your situation, just about how it'll affect them and the store.

Your employers take advantage of you. If you're not careful, they will try to not pay you for the full amount of hours you've worked. When you catch this, it can sometimes take several months to get the money you are owed. They give minimal pay raises.
