Vantaggi

If you are a young female (preferably white) then you'll have an easy getting a job here. Don't believe me? Stand outside during a job fair, and take a look at the applicants. Then look at the people you see at the grand opening. The second best thing about this job is walking out.

Svantaggi

They acknowledge that people only last 6 months on average. They'll use your enthusiasm and energy when you first start out. When you get burned out, they'll replace you. Since the training is minimal, there's no real loss to the company. If you start as management, you'll get maybe 2 weeks of haphazard training. Company outlook is good since they don't keep around people who are burned out. If you have "bad hires" you will most likely get replaced. "Bad hires" are hiring males, minorities, or middle age individuals. How many do you actually see there? Still don't believe me? Just walk into any of these glorified dollar store and you'll see.

Vantaggi

-20% discount -med, dental, vision benefits -20-ish minimum hours per week -genuinely can be a fun store to work in when run well

Svantaggi

-store managers have little to no oversight and cross professional boundaries often - hr is ineffective, document everything yourself, report to the EEOC -growth opportunities in the store are very limited and they will lowball you no matter what you do or sacrifice -crazy turnover because the expectations are unrealistic store managers lie about pay budget to everyone -more likely to hire teens and students because they are easier to take advantage of for little pay, only needs adult for when teens and students cannot work (night shifts, school days) - nearby stores, especially if in a strip mall or shopping center, like tj maxx have higher base pay, better benefits, better security, and more hour availability
