Awful management

Pros

Good pay, and consistent hours

Cons

Company keeps bad managers in power while the store can’t keep a staff BECAUSE of the bad management. They protect bad employees and managers while firing anyone who dares to try and change things for the better.

Pros

There really isn't any. Avoid at all costs.

Cons

Management is extremely poor, managers are rude and very impatient, lack of proper training. I wasn't told when my break was on my first day and was forced to work for TEN+ hours on a closing shift with NO break. My "training" was just to follow around a random employee and see what they do. I'm not even kidding.

Pros

My coworkers and one assistant manager really made the job enjoyable.

Cons

Management is too harsh on the workers, expecting to meet certain quotas that are just impossible to meet with the lack of workers and time.

Pros

Some nice coworkers but not enough to stay

Cons

No benefits worth staying for low pay no help when you're clearly struggling with a line of donors. Poorly managed like the manager herself but just sat in back must of the time or yell at employees for the tiniest things
