      Pros

      It was a job, and a paycheck.

      Cons

      1. Complete cookie-cutter environment, don't you dare be yourself! 2. Dorky morning "huddles" with exercise kind of like in kindergarten. 3. Nobody is allowed to leave the building alone when working a closing shift, gotta wait for Big Brother. 4. Dumb scheduled breaks that you have to take when they say to. "Sorry ma'am, I can't finish making your latte now, I have to go on my break lest I get written up." 5. HR and management talk to you like a small, stupid child. 6. No matter how clear you make your availability, they will give you a jacked up work schedule. 7. They do not direct hire anyone full-time, and don't disclose that in the interview either.

      Pros

      If you are looking for a job that you’ll be a part of a fun team environment, have the ability to learn all about customer “guest” service, retail operations and sales, as well as merchandising even at entry level great opportunity. for such a large corporation I have been pleasantly surprised by how tight knit teams are. applying was okay, there were multiple steps (videos, assessments) but overall not too bad)., phone call and then video questions before hiring.

      Cons

      Pay isn’t great, but for the market it’s fair. Moving up involves a much larger increase in responsibilities and workload relative to the pay increase.
