Pros
Learning about clothes, always getting new stuff, meeting some awesome people. There's a lot of room to move up because of the high turnover. Pretty good insurance too. I do love that they donate to a lot of charities, they're very LGBT friendly, green without the plastic bags and stuff, they stand for a lot of good things. Also, depending on how long you've been there and your position, you do get a bonus at the end of the month if the company made enough profit that month.
Cons
What can I say? It sucks the life out of you. Open ended shifts mean you never know when you're gonna go home. And they will squeeze the life out of that "open ended-ness". Assigning you tasks AFTER you are supposed to get off. THIS REALLY HAPPENS. I wish I had known before I started here that I would be getting let out at LEAST twenty minutes after I was supposed to be off, like, every day. Wtf is that? Manage your time better. That makes employees feel used. You know what else makes us feel used? The horrible pay. We pretty much go thru people's garbage all day w/ the occasional great seller who understands when we pass etc. Otherwise it's just someone getting mad at us for not taking all 12 pairs of their 8 years old pumps and sneakers or worn out t shirts. And they get ANGRY. AT YOU. And you just gotta smile and take it. I'm telling you I've worked as a buyer for years and the people who sell here just give you the worst time. You have to do homework, read extra books, make presentations, do research on your own, (this is all OFF the clock or at home they don't give you time to do it at work)...........all for less than a living wage. Despicable. Honestly.
