Pros

Straight forward and easy work. Great GM at my store!

Cons

I was paid $1 above minimum wage in my state. Schedule was all over the place even as a part timer. I'd work eight days in a row mostly four hour shifts sometimes closing one day and opening the next day at 6AM. Then have no hours for three to four days in a row. Middle management in my store is very poor. Out of all the leads and ASMs(25ish), I'd say only a handful were competent. It's a job in a retail environment so you work with some nice people but also a lot of bitter retail lifers. Customers will always stink in any low end retail environment and this was no different. I was assaulted by a customer, but as it was my last day of my two weeks notice, only one ASM took it seriously and there was no follow up even though I filed a police report. PT benefits are a joke. They do not even cover once a year blood tests or x-rays. No ER or emergency coverage at all. Part of the reason I took this "not so great" retail job was for the benefits. So if thats why you need this job, I'd look somewhere else.

Pros

Remote, great starting pay for entry level remote. Team environment was the best part of the experience.

Cons

Very limited to no advancement opportunities with pay increases that don't even match cost of living increases. No HR support and the culture reflects that... not a company that has any flexibility in the way employees are handled when they make a mistake it stacks and is not removes for a year. If you have three mistakes even if they are in totally different areas they will terminate even tenured employees with otherwise perfect records. Not a way to keep good employees.
