Pros
I was hired on as a part-time cast member for cash wrap in August 2016 for a new store opening in Austin, TX. The 2 week training sessions for the new store opening were an amazing experience, we had incredible brand trainings and so much fun getting to know our cast mates and bond. We had a couple weeks to get the store ready for opening and were still given great training throughout the whole process. They also gave out a lot of gratis (free brand products) which was honestly my favorite part about the job.
Cons
I wish the hiring process had been more transparent about the hours they had available to hand out to a very large team.. only the full-time employees were guaranteed a certain amount of hours and the leftovers were divided among part-time employees (although I was aware of some issues with even full-time managers not getting enough hours to work..). There were some weeks I was not on the schedule at all and this was why I eventually had to quit working there (and also pay was also pretty terrible for the measly amount of hours given.) This is a corporate problem, not my store's management's fault. The store is 'given' hours available to schedule for shifts depending on sales goals reached, which doesn't really take "care and concern" for their employees into consideration whatsoever. They over-hire for their own convenience but don't care about wasting your time or how you're going to pay your bills.
