Terrible management

Pros

The pay was good for a retail job.

Cons

I worked there for 3 days before the manager told me she would call me for my next shift, I waited 2 weeks just for her to call me to tell me that my shift was cut for the night... a shift I was unaware that I ever scheduled for in the first place. During the call, she told me she would call me for my next available shift. She never did, despite telling me that they REALLY needed people for sales support. Eventually, I just got another job since I wasn't going to wait forever for her to call me back. I would probably go to a different store location to work since the one I was at had bad management.

Pros

Fast Paced, Ever Changing, Exciting Product, Customers Enjoy Shopping w/ this Company (It is their “fun” / “me” time) so makes sales more enjoyable, Company making positive strides to offer competitive pay, 401K, Benefits

Cons

Work-Life Balance (Non-existent), Payroll Fluctuations, ZERO payroll for training (And when SM goes over payroll in attempt to on-board properly, will get reprimanded), “Sink or Swim” attitude in regards to training, High turnover during holiday, Little Support during mass hiring season, SM Required to balance “Selling & Operations” with little payroll to do so, Typical Retail Management demands. You know going into this role that it WILL be demanding, so these are just situations that you must learn to adapt to.
