Pros
You can have fexible hours which for me is a good. The pay is reasonable for the work required. If you are full time the benefits are good. Even as regular part time you are eligible to participate in the 401K program and you received contributions toward a pension plan. Though the amount can vary quite a bit, you receive spiffs based on how well your store is meeting their goals.
Cons
Your hours are not gauranteed unless you are a salaried associate. If business is slow, your hours can be cut. The 4th quarter is the worst of the this. The reduction is hours at the end of the year can also lead to inadequate staff to get the job done. The stores are open retail hours so evenings and weekends are part of the job.
