Pros
It's a place to get your foot in the retail door.
Kontras
Huddles. It's very juvenile, takes time from actual work and seems to be directed by disgruntled former cheerleaders. "Team" everything. If one person does a great job, the whole team gets good recognition rather than the ONE person who actually did the work. The acknowlegement board is juvenile. The way the hours are allocated. Sloppy and all over the place. Multiple "chiefs" trying to each out do one another at the expense of the hourly people; ie. mngr#1 says do this, in the middle of the task, mngr#2 makes you stop to do what he/she wants, mngr#3 comes along with the same idea and the hourly guy gets yelled at for NOT completing task of mngr#1, half finishing task from mngr#2 and then gets yelled at with a stern "you aren't pulling your team weight" speech from mngr#3 when it's time for worker to go home but the tasks are still not done. If things are going great, it's "Yay TEAM!". If things are going crappy, it's "Hey YOU! This is YOUR fault for not being a better part of the TEAM!". Hive mentality to the hilt.
