Pros
Great place to build clientele. Fun environment depending on location and staff. Having a supportive and motivated manager is a plus. Free company education and skills training. The tips were great.
Kontras
Miss out on family life and events. Long hours, if you are the most requested in the store, you may not get lunch until 3-4pm even if you opened. My manager didn’t care if I ate or not. Oops, you have 2 more requests sorry! I felt like a popular cutting machine. Don’t forget to drink water!! I worked 6 years with the company and have seen a lot of turn over. Depending on the location, most the managers in the area were catty, petty and immature. I stuck it out with my many managers I worked for at one location until I built a 2-3 hour request time and got out on my own. It’s hard grunt work to freedom if you’re patient with yourself.
