Pros

I am 32 and worked here to make extra money for the holiday season. The management is nice and does not micro manage. If you do everything that is asked of you they leave you alone. You get to mingle with people and know all the new things that people buy. I had fun in the short time I was there

Cons

Your only getting $8 an hour so dont expect too much. You can pick up hours and people seem to be open to picking up hours if you need to get off.
