Pros

Some of the people are interesting to work with. Very friendly.

Cons

Management and supervisors are the only full-time. Associates are only part-time. You will get under 25 hours/week. Alot of times you will get 12-18 hrs/week unless you're getting credit apps and doing the extra work. Very understaffed. They only use the extra hours if they really need to. Saving the hours($) for management yearly bonuses. A past manager told me that's what happens when they stay under budget.

Laid back work, nice people to work with.

Sales driven. There doesn't seem to be much training on how they want the cashiers to do their job.
