Pros

Company that empowers women, quality clothing, great management, great teamwork, very generous employee discount, flexible schedules, free in-store fitness classes, friendly customers, fun atmosphere to work in.

Cons

Shifts are often cut or shaved shorter; Not enough hours scheduled each week, some weeks only 4 hours are scheduled or even no hours at all. Realistically this is not even a real part-time job, it's more like 0-8 hours a week. No opportunity to become a full-time employee or advance into leadership roles. Apparently there isn't supposed to be "fraternizing" between leaders and sales associates, which is a big shame.

Pros

It's a sisterhood. The 50% discount can be used at any gap brand store. Damaged items are 70% off. You get your schedule a month in advance in case you need a shift covered.

Cons

Every customer needs specialized one-on-one help and you may need to juggle 10 at a time. Managers are constantly chatting to each other in the office and leaving you to manage the sales floor. Expect everything to be sugar coated.
