Pros

Great co workers, generous time off, good benefits.

Cons

New “reorganization” made this store disorganized and employees disenfranchised. The company gave everyone new job titles and reassigned responsibilities because, let’s face it, how else can you make massive paycuts all at once? Didn’t work because now the sales are down, the store is in a shambles, and fewer and fewer customers are coming in. Why should they? Nine times out of ten the item they want is out of stock, and if it’s in stock and they try to set up,delivery it might never arrive. The place I was once proud to represent has become an embarrassment. The majority of my customer interactions involve me apologizing profusely for something that is completely out of my control.
