Pros

It is good for maturing you and helps everyone with communication and social skills. If you show interest you can progress within the company learning about the retail business and leaning management skills on the job.

Cons

Working conditions in the site I worked in did not have anywhere to eat lunch, it had a microwave which was placed on the floor. It did not have any seats most people ended up having lunch while sitting on stock in the stock room. The pay is minimum wage with no increase, even if you have been there for years and do a lot of management work.

Pros

There are Absolutely no pros to the job

Cons

You will be miss treated by upper management who while is expected to be held by the same standards you are willing never actually uphold those standards for themselves while simultaneously being abused by the employees who are your direct reports because this company gives basic employees several protection against disciplinary actions making it very difficult to correct poor behavior and remove underperforming employees. You will be undercompensated for all of your work and be expected to work yourself to death all to line the pockets of the people above you who have absolutely no idea how to truly run a customer service business where the focus is the customers and the people that brake care of them
