The pay is typical garbage, minimum wage. Benefits are OK, they do have benefits for even part-time employees (but even those pretty much suck). Job security is good, if you do your job well and show up for your shifts, you're pretty much golden. They're willing to work with you on your schedule, which is definitely a plus if you're going to grad school or something. Career potential is always there, I guess, if you're there long enough maybe they'll promote you to a manager or an area supervisor. Depending on where you're located, it can be busy or slow (obviously). Your co-workers usually know what they're doing, which is good. I mean, they're in the same place you are... Work environment is typical of a retail environment: snotty customers leaving their garbage all over. </td></tr></table> 03/17/2009
