Pros

The company gives a great opportunity to earn more through its commissions. Also, it's great that they give health benefits even to part-time employees; most retailers don't. Finally, their discount for employees on merchandise is great at 40%.

Cons

The base salary can be considered low compared to industry, but they make up for that with the commissions which are not that hard to make.

Pros

Employee discount although the percentage of discount is being cut by 10% effective 1/1/10 for those hired prior to September 2009. The reduced discount is already in effect for those hired after September.

Cons

Only receive Bonus on sales over set dollar amounts. The larger the sale the larger the Bonus. Sales under $150 receive no bonus. Coupons, discounts, etc. make it harder and harder to achieve a bonue.
