Pros

People working here will completely leave you alone. You can go over a week without interacting with another employee or your manager. This is also a con.

Cons

I was told by management, “Your salary is at the low end of average for our industry and that’s right where we want to be.” And that I wouldn’t receive any raises for two years. I found a better paying job with a more competent manger within a month.

Pros

working with comics and collectibles, decent discount, often meet creators and artists

Cons

HR is untrustworthy and will release private conversations that don't need to be shared. They also will not do anything if an employee is acting inappropriately as well as their sister company, Dark Horse.

Pros

Free/discounted comics, toys etc Pop culture! Customers

Cons

Management lacks commitment to fostering a positive productive culture, competitive pay, and training people for the positions they currently hold or aspire to. Too many great people have left the company because they just couldn't take it anymore. Many people are entrenched in their position and there's a lot of posturing, inter-department bickering, and truly counter-productive behavior. You should hear the way some of the office staff talk about the customers when out of earshot--not great. Some employees are known by the rest of the staff as short-tempered toward each other and to avoid at all costs. Averse to innovating--to the detriment of the business. Be aware if you're looking to work in one of their stores-if you're working alone for a weekday shift, you won't get an actual meal break away from the store. Avoid.
