Pros

Comprehensive and reasonably priced benefits for a PT job. Culture is inclusive, diverse and open-minded. Coworkers are exceptional - many have college degrees and are overqualified for role which makes the work experience interesting.

Cons

It's retail so has the usual negatives. Decisions on pay are made at US corporate headquarters so any attempts to rectify local pay inequities simply don't happen. Re pay, it doesn't seem like anyone really looks at the whole picture for pay scales. Inquiries have been met with corporate rhetoric and any action takes years and then is too late and too little. The impression is that corporate compensation teams who analyze pay scales are more interested in justifying their current flawed model versus understanding true disparities in local markets and then identifying and implementing solutions.

Pros

Very job independent, don't need a manager to tell you what to do.

Cons

Not enough staffing, I coworker per department. Responsible for helping customers as well as other departments who need your product knowledge.
