Vantaggi

The benefits and flexible schedule are the only reason I stay.

Svantaggi

micro managing DM, unrealistic expectations of managment. They expect salaried employees to pick up all payroll slack because we, evidently, have no life outside of our job. Not enough payroll, too heavy of a workload. Customers are constantly upset about the return policy yet they refuse to change it. The pay for sales associates isn't worth anyones time, no wonder I can't keep employees. Why work for us when you can go anywhere else and work less and get paid more? Everything about this job is just awful. Constantly having to deal with people who are in better positions while I'm the one training them on new things. Promotions are given based on who you know, not what you know.

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
