Pros

Open store environment. Friendly Co-Workers. Good tech for employees to use @ work.

Cons

Was frequently asked to scan items that were late to locate on my employee phone that full time employees gave me. This bumped my metrics down & had no effect on theirs’. Many times it was not my fault & felt I was being used to make the rest of the team look better; as well as contributing to a “hire then fire” burn through of employees. Management did not give me any clarity on when I was going to be seasonally discharged. I was told I’m a great help by my managers & then got no work for 2 weeks followed by an email @ 12:06 AM from an automated system telling me I’ve “been terminated under no fault of my own” Never heard from anyone at the store again. Very disheartening and now I shop at GameStop for my tech/gaming items.

Pros

Flexible hours, employee perks such as discounted products, offers 401(k) despite being part-time, coworkers who are nice to work with.

Cons

Management is quick to call-out sales that have nothing attached to it (warranties, card applications, memberships, or accessories). There is a rodent problem that has not been addressed for nearly a year; food and beverages cannot be sold at this store.
