Vantaggi
Pays a tad better than minimum wage, within a clean and safe environment. There is a pleasant camaraderie among team members. The 10% employee discount can be useful. And the corporate plans for aggressive new store development can potentially offer upward mobility.
Svantaggi
The touted benefits for part-timers are merely the opportunity to purchase membership in a group health plan, and the cost, while lower than individual plans, still runs nearly $100 weekly for single persons. The 32 hour weekly average in order to obtain fully paid benefits means that store directors carefully jigger schedules so that very few part timers will be eligible. Performance reviews are similarly managed to conveniently avoid salary raises. "Human resources" are a commodity, despite lip service to the contrary.
