I hear they are begging for people in the new store in the NW.

Just wondering if anyone has ever worked there or knows anyone that works there. What are your/their experiences?

Also does anyone if starting wages are different for different positions? I noticed there are tons of positions on their website.


Thanks

I've never worked there...but from what I've heard they treat their employees quite well..benefits, good salary, raises, perks, profit sharing, etc etc

Heard their pay and benefits are good, but they push you pretty hard. Give it a try and let us know.

I worked there. They pay pretty good and it's a busy atmosphere that helps time fly by

Extra $4/hr on Sundays!!
