Store Manager for over 7 years with Boot Barn
Pros
Customers were by far the best in anyone could ask for in retail. The product is good however, they have gotten away from real western wear and more in to glamour. Real cowboys and girls need real western wear. It is the daily uniform for them and BB has pretty much taken that out of the stores. Hours weren't bad except Christmas time! (its brutal) PTO is awesome Discount is good except you have to wear the boots and clothing they sell so it could be a lot better. BB help your staff dress the part! Benefits were standard for a retail company
Cons
Their is no communication from upper management No one is home in HR, ever! People skills for DM's and RM's (this isn't high school its not who is most popular wins! these are real people jobs and lives your playing with) It’s never any fun to go to work for someone who is completely making you unhappy no matter how hard your team works its never enough! Or a DM that is so moody you never know what hammer is going to come down and who it will fall on! So if you want a job with BB I hope you have a high tolerance for drama because it is there and what I hear it has not gotten any better.
