Pros

One of the best things I like is the Learning Labs, that should be followed by all managers. Two, it is what you have to make it and Three, Hold on until something else better comes along.

Cons

Managers, who claim they have no time to coach individuals, because of their responsibilities, who display no interest in your management development

Pros

They had a great leadership there, made a lot of sales. Very nice environment to work in,all the employees where like family. The manager always tried to encourage everyone to do their best.

Cons

They didn't always have the right amount of product. Sometimes the manager would make me leave before my shift even if I didn't want to.

Long hours, but generally a fun place to work.

Business Outlook

Pros

The majority of the staff are usually students and most co-workers are extremely friendly. People aren't too serious and there's a lot of banter going on. There are also opportunities to progress into management positions fairly quickly. I was hired to work on weekdays only because of the high number of students and so have a very good work-life balance.

Cons

Long hours, usually 9 to 10 hour shifts. Management can be on your back constantly when something goes wrong, even when it's not your fault. Sometimes also have a lack of staff on busy shifts due to the labour cost. Too much is expected from new employees and they are sometimes pushed to apply for higher positions before they've learned the core positions to an adequate level.
