Pros

A lot of camaraderie amongst crew members, bonuses are great when you get them, and you get free food on your lunch break.

Cons

The pay relative to the amount of work done is not congruent, the management can be very disorganized, and if you don't have open availability, hours are a little hard to come by.

There are quite some friendly people. Everything was orderly and they all seem to care about helping out and making sure the store runs smoothly.

Sometimes the coworkers will talk about things that are against the code- I absolutely despise it! God Bless
