Pros

Nice co workers cause no one wants you to quit

Cons

Horrible scheduling. I'm a part time worker that works 7 days a week. Sometimes for 2-3 hours at a time which is against policy. Make the same money as a cashier but work late nights, deal with trucks and continuous stocking

Pros

Great benefits, fast paced environment, good teamwork. I liked the hours, you get an education about tools, whether from your coworkers or the customers. And speaking of the customers, they were on the better side for retail. Most are down to earth and easy to converse with.

Cons

Supply chain issues, many parts would never be replenished, despite being featured, advertised, and on display. That would often lead to tensions with customers. Aggressive time constraints on tasks. Sidewalk sales, holidays, and also coincidentally inclement weather days, can be quite busy and therefore stressful. Especially if there's call outs, but if you have a good management team, you'll have good staff that will want to work for them.
