Pros

Considering the economy, $9.40 per hr was not too shabby. They did give you about 32 hours a week. If you just need a check, don't want to get personal this is the place and can stand on your feet all day ( on cement) go for it.

Cons

Exhausting, long hours, not much movement behind register, tough on you legs. Managment is there own click, you and an manager can be the only two in a hall and manager won't speak. GEEZZ buddy, you already work me to death, at least acknowledge my existance!!! Hard time getting time off, you need to know 3 weeks in advance unless you can switch with someone, which is impossible since you don't know people because turnover is rampant. It was looked down upon if you could not work until 10-11 pm--I had little kids and would not work past 8pm--so my future even as a cashier was shakey!! I opted no to stay. I only needed a short gig fo get us through a layoff--then my husband got back to work and now I am home with kids. I would do it again if I had too, but I wore me out, my legs still throb at night!!!

Pros

You need money or insurance and can't find another job anywhere else.

Cons

It's political and people are never allowed to move up because other people in supervisor positions won't move up to make room for you to go into a higher position. The pay isn't great and the hours are often short to make you work more days.

Pros

It's really close to home for me, which is great as I currently don't have access to any reliable means of transportation.

Cons

It's a lot of work for little pay in comparison to other jobs in this field. The management staff seems very unattentive.
