Vantaggi
-You get an employee discount. -You get breaks. -The pay rate is reasonable. -The number of hours you work is reasonable for the most part. -The dress code is not very strict (pretty much any kind of plain blue shirt with sleeves and black pants). -The managers and coworkers I have are very easy to get along with and fun to work with. -They train you well. -The work/life/school balance is good. -They will let you take time off if you put in for it enough time in advance. -If you stay there long enough you might have a chance to move up. -There are benefits. -Many of the customers are nice.
Svantaggi
-The discount can't be used on sale items and it is only good to take the tax off (10 percent where I live). -They tend to stay on your case about Shop Your Way Rewards, Smart Plans, etc. -You have to ask the customers all these questions (about S.Y.W.R., Smart Plans on some items, birth dates on others, and now eReceipts). -You have to constantly override items because they don't ring up right half the time, and sometimes you have to get a manager to do it. -It is not unusual for them to be shorthanded (1-2 cashiers, 1 person at the service desk, 1 floor manager, etc.). -You have to work on holidays (except Christmas), Sundays, and late at night, but that is typical with most jobs. -Don't count on making enough money to pay your bills unless you really plan on saving up. -During the holiday season, it can be very stressful (you work long hours, staying really late then coming in really early the next morning). -Some rude customers, but again, that is typical with most jobs.
