Pluspunten

Flexible schedule as a part time student, Easy to shine due to other employees setting the bar so low, good opportunity to pick up extra hours on school breaks / weekends, time and a half on sunday

Minpunten

Management can be underqualified and very unprofessional. It's either a hit or miss with your managers, either they've worked their way up the food chain for 20 years to get to management level and are miserable, or they are qualified and belong in the leadership position. Very hierarchical structure, Assistant managers respond to store managers who respond to district managers, and it goes down the chain to sales associates / employees who are forced to work harder in order to impress the head of the food chain in order to give the store managers / assistant store managers bigger bonuses. Nearly every employee is entry level and has no previous qualifications which means you're going to be working with a lot of low quality high school and college kids who provide no value to the company. You will also have to pick up for their lack of work ethic and not be rewarded for it. Don't be surprised if you make minimum wage for 2+ years.

Pluspunten

it is a job if you desperately need one

Minpunten

management does not keep promises (e.g. I was promised $2 higher pay upon accepting the position and later was told it wasn't feasible anymore once starting. I was also promised a specific day off then last minute had it revoked because they decided to make it a mandatory day). management does not listen to or care about its employees, very unprofessional. store managers don't want to do anything to help, they just sit in the office. management let other employees slack off and do nothing and expected others to compensate for their lack of effort general manager was horribly rude and misogynistic. he threw a box at someone while visiting.
