Always at work and on time. Always being productive at all times.
Puller/Stocker (Former Employee), oklahoma city – May 20, 2013
I make it to work 10 mintues early. Check all work stations and make sure there stocked and prepared for the entire day. I stay on the line pulling orders all day. I learned something new everyday. Some co-workers where very helpful but some was jealous and wanted you to fail. The hardest part of the job was working long hours in the heat. What I liked – more... the most was the day went by fast cause I always stayed busy. – less

A wonderful place to advance in the retail work place
Office Manager/Seasonal Man (Former Employee), Albany, GA – May 19, 2013
Pros: starting out at ten dollars as full time, store closed on sundays
Cons: not enough employees for the job needed to be done
Some daily duties were to balance office and zero out all accounts for the next business day. I learned to be a manager in more than one department. The manager was open to some new ideas for store improvement but stuck to the script that was laid from the corporate office. I can say that the hardest part of the job was getting the store ready for the – more... inventory season. After that season the next hardest part was giving the employees the same hours on a different budget without causing any problems within the employees. One thing that I enjoyed was setting up the displays and lay out sheets, being able to see the vision of the corporate office come to life is a beautiful thing. – less

Good job, bad management
Cashier (Current Employee), Taylors, SC – May 10, 2013
Pros: great job, friendly co-workers
Cons: bad management
I loved this job and everyone who worked there. Except our store manager. This is at the particular store I worked at, #328 in Taylors, SC. I don't know about other stores, but our manager did nothing but put us down.

ANGELFACE916 – May 14, 2013

While setting up the store, I was one of eighty slaves to setup and we were treated like DOG # 2 !!! We were threatened every day of being fired, humiliated, forced to work 13 hours a day with very few breaks. Held hostage until work was completed and lots of HEAVY LIFTING and being told to "GO FASTER" !!! Do not work for these people, I am reporting them to the labor board. I was so happy to work for a CHRISTIAN COMPANY but was very disappointed. Best of Luck

Nice coworkers, management from Hell
customer service (Former Employee), IL – May 7, 2013
Pros: good pay, anyone in a non-management position is usually pretty nice
Cons: danger of losing your soul.
The job wouldn't be such a bad place to work if the managers weren't Satan's minions spat up from hell. And I don't mean just one. Finding a manager who is even sort of human is like finding a needle in a haystack. The corporate atmosphere encourages the managers to be combination slave overseers/concentration camp guards-but without the charm. I gave – more... management one star because it wouldn't let me give less. – less

Fun workplace
Cashier/Stocker (Former Employee), Battle Creek, MI – May 6, 2013
Pros: got to leave for our lunch
Cons: no benefits and short lunches
I greet every customer and help them find what they are looking for. This has gave me more improvement on my customer service to always make sure the customer leaves satisfied. It is important to get along with your co-workers because if you are giving off a negative attitude the customers see it and can make them feel uncomfortable as well. The hardest – more... part of the job was around christmas when I ran the front part of the store because I had to call everyone for their breaks and I ran the only register for returns. I enjoyed working there because I got to interact with customers every day. – less

Good Place to work
Department Lead (Former Employee), Racine, WI – April 18, 2013
Pros: developing skills and knowledge in different areas.
Cons: incompetent managers and district managers, no raises
I spent a total of 8 years with this store and I enjoyed working with the my co-workers and the customers. My area of expertise was working with scrapbooking and crafts. I have worked in different area of the store and learned many wonderful skills in needlework, crafting and art and sewing. These I have taken with me and used them to improve my own – more... home. I am grateful for the opportunity to work in a store that depend on customer service. As a department lead I was given the responsibility to manage the employees I had to work with, ordering, stocking and displaying the new merchandise as it came into the store. This store will always be my favorite place to shop for craft and home ideas. The hardest part of this job was working with incompetent managers and district manager, as the one that I worked for in Wisconsin. I was blessed to work for a great store in Oklahoma and they gave me some wonderful opportunities for growth with my skills and knowledge. It was hard to say good-by to my co-workers and customers who I had spent 6 years with. I would recommend this store for not only shopping but working there. It is hard work, but satisfying. – less
