Pros
The benefits are truly incredible, all things considered. That's why I thought it was a legitimate place to work. I also appreciate being able to close the doors and walk away at night knowing I'll be able to pick up where I left off the next day. The uniforms are good quality, flattering, and easy to care for, but cost about $100 if you want a week's worth of shirts.
Cons
It's absolutely nightmarish. First of all, the titles given to staff are misnomers invented to make themselves sound distinguished. Second, you are basically on your own. My store is tiny. There are a total of six people working there, and that's all. If you need something, your only option is to get the GM--who seems much more concerned with calling "non-renewals" and taking inventory on a weekly basis than helping actual customers in the store. The whole business model is two-faced. Half of the store is trying to sell beat-up furniture to whoever makes the mistake of coming through the door, and the other half is trying to get it back when they stop paying for it.
