Pros

-They allow you to work during your hours of availability. I never work mornings. -The other people I work with in produce are friendly and helpful. -You get a 10% employee discount after 90 days for general merchandise and fresh produce.

Cons

-Even within my availability, the hours are random and difficult to plan around. (e.g. 1-10 Mon., 2-7 Tue., Nothing Wed. or Thu., 5-9 Fri.) -Our department has been understaffed for a month, but they haven't hired anyone new yet, so management gets frustrated that not everything gets done and blames the employees. -Every manager (and there are a LOT) has a different idea of what is most important, so there is always someone who is upset that THEIR "Most Important Thing" didn't get done. No clear setting of priorities for associates. Very little positive feedback when you've done a good job.

Pros

Decent pay (for retail), easy job, the majority of the time working with customers is satisfying, works well with your availability, and big enough that if for some reason you need a day off at the last minute there is always someone willing to switch schedules with you.

Cons

Not enough staff to do a decent job at given tasks. Management is hit or miss, some managers treat their employees like robots while others do a great job.
