      Not too much either way

      Pros

      Your flexibility as an associate is better when you aren't working as a cashier. There are a lot of things to be learned, a lot of knowledge around the store.

      Cons

      Obviously not being able to support a family very well on what your monetary compensation is. Advancement seems to be overlooked for people who seem to be good at what they do and if they can't or don't want to lose you in a position, it's not made worth your while to stay there.

      A decent place to work

      Pros

      I liked many of my coworkers and the work environment was reasonably upbeat, even when we were swamped. Pay is decent, as well as benefits, especially for full time employees.

      Cons

      Work hours and schedule is all over the place, always includes working weekends. Sections, shelves are usually a mess, constant restocking chaos. The need to constantly deal with dissatisfied, annoyed, and occasionally hostile or unreasonable cutomers who are usually upset by disorganized and out of stock merchandise and long waits for attention or being "ignored" by associates dealing with a million other things/customers at the same time. They need more people on the floor, period. Human resources has a very cozy realtionship with mangagement and usually views things from a management perspective rather than a more objective, reality based perspective.

      Not too bad a job.

      Specialty sales associate

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Pay better than average for retail, casual dress. No work to take home. For the most part you know what to expect each day at work so the stress level is fairly low. Can change to another department or area of work when bored with current job. Can move up to department supervisor if so inclined and have abilities for a little more pay and alot more responsiblities.

      Cons

      No set hours or days ,can be made to work anything between 5am and 11pm and most always the weekend. Management aften does a poor job of using resourses (labor, materials,talents) effectively. They are just tring to do what is required by Atlanta anyway they can.
