Pros

They make an effort to hire outgoing, friendly women, so it's a fun place to work. Plus, there's a great discount and the clothing is great!

Cons

The hours can be hard, especially during the holidays (leave work at 11:15 pm, be clocked in the next morning by 7 am). Schedules only come out a couple weeks in advance and are constantly changing, making it impossible to really plan anything. That being said, the managers really made an effort to work with the employees if there was a scheduling conflict for individual shifts.

Pros

Love the leadership team and the environment is very fun to work in. Love the customers.

Cons

Hours can come in waves - one month you have 40 hours a week and the next you have 5 hours a week. But that comes with any retail job.

Pros

The hours are extremely flexible, even at last minute. Someone is usually always able to cover your shift, and if not, the managers will try to help you find some alternative. The people who work there are also really nice. They definitely hire people who are friendly and work well with others, which makes work more fun. Pay is pretty good compared to a lot of retail jobs out there. There is great perks, such as free workout classes, good discount at most Gap inc. retailers, and occasionally you can get discounts or free comps for races and events in your area.

Cons

Obviously with retail, your hours are rarely consistent. They have early morning shifts as well as late shifts. The managers don't really agree with Corporate or the GM, which makes communication between associates sometimes challenging.
