was a very fun place to work. relaxed not too stressful, casual atmosphere and there were HATS!
Data Entry Specialist (Former Employee), Indianapolis, IN –
Pros: hour lunch, casual attire (jeans, t-shirts, tennis shoes), independence
Cons: difficult co-workers
My job consisted of sitting at a desk and manually entering purchase orders into the computer system, sometimes dealing with vendors directly. It was very fast paced and full of fun people. The work flow never stopped coming in. It was a relaxed, laid back place to work. Casual work attire and great hours. The compensation was exactly what I had asked – more...  for in the initial interview. The supervisors for the most part were very friendly and very understanding. And there were free hats! I'd go back in a heart beat. – less

Busy
Third Key (Former Employee), Concord, NH –
When I was working, I took count of inventory on a regular basis. I helped the customers to pick out the right hat and do the necessary paper work. I learned a lot about different sport teams and the different styles of hats. The hardest part of the job is also the most enjoyable part as well and that was trying to find the perfect hat for some our – more...  customers. – less

Not an excellent work place, upper management was lacking professionalism
Store Manager (Former Employee), Tarentum, PA –
All and all not terrible but also not ideal. Upper management was very unprofessional and could get rude if bothered with "small problems"

Company In general
Keyholder/Assistant Manager (Current Employee), chesapeake –
Pros: discounts on merchandise
Cons: reduced hours and pay
A typical day at work includes convincing customers that the product looks good on them, and that they should become a member of the LIDS club, saving them 20% on their visits. The LIDS club, promps them to return for more items. The job is easy, you meet alot of people.
