Emerging leadership program for retail management
Pros
Not bad pay for recent college grad.
Cons
Communication was terrible, with an atmosphere that everyone was just trying to cover their own butts, rather than working together. Trainees are lured down to whatever whole of a town with the promise that after the six month trainee program there would be a full-time position available as an STM, Hr, OTM or at corporate. This is not the case, as trainees you are forced to interview for sale team manager positions or be forced to be a sales associate. If you try to leave you have too and are expected to pay back the $3000moving bonus unless you've been with the company more than 1 year. While there are a few nice people at the company, most trainees are paired with coaches who are overworked and uninterested in helping the newbie learn the ropes, not to mention untrained to handle the responsibility of helping the Trainee succeed with their trainee assignments. If you are lucky to complete any of your assignments. More than likely they will use you for lunch coverage or to make phone calls.
