Pros

Some departments are good, but if you get stuck in the front end at this store, you have to do service desk, drive-ups, and carts, usually by yourself or with one person, and it's a lot. But a pro is the day goes fast, I guess.

Cons

Overworked, raises very little. They never hire when we actually need help. They tell you that you can learn new areas but decide that it’s better for them to keep you where you are, even if it’s against how you’re feeling about that area.

Advice to Management

You guys do a few shifts being the only person at the service desk for a few weeks and see how it is. When an employee has been there for years and asks to move departments, don't tell them, “Sorry, but we can't replace the job that you do now.”
