Retail Department Supervisor.
Retail Department Supervisor:
Pros: I. Training others standards: Engaging with associates/working side by side ensuring sense of axcomplishment. II. Sales comparison to other stores. III. Merchandising: inventory control. IV. Look and feel of store.
Cons: I. Lack of hands on recognition giving the opportunity to advance in the company. II. Corporate not supporting stores with Customer Service issues. III. Lack of hours given to stores; should be based off of sales, demographics, along with work load to update stores and new hires in training for 2 weeks. IV. Store Managers should be not only a team leader, and hands on, but understanding towards family issues with out personal retaliation.
Not that great.

One Of The Best Retail Places I've Worked.
Customer Service Associate:
Pros: The company treats everyone with respect and will work with you for days off. Fair pay for my experience, full time available even under ObamaCare, most associates who are available can get 40 hours and even overtime. Lots of company programs to reward you for a job well done.
Cons: It's customer based so days can be hectic and longer than expected if the store is a mess. Must work nights (2 a week) and weekends. You pay must work over 30 hours per week to be eligible for many benefits and you pay for them still.
