Pros

Really enjoyed co-workers and manager. Pay was alright.

Cons

Horrible store managers outside of the bakery. Forced to do other departments jobs. Worked unpaid overtime a lot. Never spent holidays with family. And the store heavily believes in “the customer is always right” motive which is fine and all but not fine when I’m consistently being harassed/yelled at by customers

Pros

Direct coworkers were great to work with. I also enjoyed being left to do my work and not babysat by management.

Cons

Management doesn't know what they are doing. Resets and floor plans were regularly not done properly. The store I worked at has a skeleton crew so I never got help (but was expected to stop everything I'm going to go help other departments/areas). Also meaning good luck to any customers needing help, especially when I was the only person working my area of the store, so when I wasn't there, no one was. Management also regularly disappeared into the offices or were on vacation. Also was terminated for reasons outside my control even though I was told they look at the reasons for attendance incidents before termination. Never got to get the FMLA or accommodation to my doctors before being terminated two days after I requested them. Didn't bother asking for a raise either. I did multiple times and got nothing.
