Our shop is a fast paced retail environment with an average of 500 - 1000+ customers a day in the summer and 200 - 500+ customers a day in the winter. Our goal is to engage with each customer so they leave knowing a little more about the shop, the artists we carry, or the products.

What we offer:
Pay is $20/hr with paid sick leave, with opportunities for raises once sales training has been completed. We offer a regular, consistent schedule. For staff working 30+ hours, we also offer great health insurance (including dental and vision) which is available after 60 days of employment. We offer 401k, with employer matching too after 6 months of employment. Employees also receive a 20% discount, and 2 free shirts. Our breakroom has snacks, coffee, tea, and other goodies. We do monthly team/sales competitions that often include winning free products, food around the Pike Place Market, PTO, or bonuses. We also get together as a group through the month for art nights and game nights.

Covid19 Precautions:
Since our shop is small and can get crowded very quickly, still limit occupancy. Our entire team is vaccinated and we require staff to be fully vaccinated and boosted before starting at Robot vs Sloth. We work with the doors open and have 3 medical grade air filters. We provide KN95 masks, but do not require them.
