Vantaggi

Friendly Customers for the most part. Big windows to look out of...as you stand at the register...while you imagine yourself on the other side of the windows... for 5 hours.

Svantaggi

The managers will put you on register for about 5 hours (your entire shift) , after that they will want you to pick up their slack because they weren't doing anything for their shift. Customers will get mad at you because they couldn't find anyone else working in the store. Other employees that aren't at the register can be found in the corners of the store while they wait for their shift to end. While at the register you will need to also be taking care of about half the store, cleaning, organizing, trying to help customers all while bringing carts in from outside. You will need to keep one eye on the register...so that it does not explode...(huge line, bomb threat etc.) The music in the store has about 4 tracks that loop over and over. You will enter a state of purgatory as you zone out wishing that...maybe...just maybe...the music system will play something not terrible. Many customers would come and complain about the music and how it made them want to end their own lives... They played great hits such as...Beatles tribute bands... Alpha Rev - "Phoenix Burn" ...and Paul McCartney's - "simply having a wonderful Christmas Time"...in early October. (Sarcasm on great hits...they are terrible) Hours are based on favorites so you will probably get 10 hours a week. Unless of course...you happen to be The Pope...Ronald McDonald...or a Highschool Friend with the manager. PLEASE...for the sake of all that is just...all that is pure....For the Human Spirit...do not work here.

Vantaggi

Fine enough coworkers to be around

Svantaggi

Horrendous corporate staff. Overly aggressive marketing for customers that clearly don't seem to actually care to buy anything. 90 day no question return policy means customers buy things constantly and return them even faster. Terrible inbound freight allocation, dozens of the same item are sent on each and every truck that do not sell. Overpriced, ugly, and uncomfortable furniture that sits and fits for months on end. Corporate will tear you a new one for not getting enough customers to sign up for ad bloated emails and text marketing, while also pushing a credit card with terrible benefits from a scummy bank. Will be out of business before the end of the decade.
