Pros

Working around handbags is a girls dream come true. They have a bonus program monthly and yearly.

Cons

Our product is not what it use to be, and all the extra perks of the company have diminished too.

Pros

part time benefits safe working environment

Cons

absolutely plutocratic ,autocratic ,micromanaging work environment. These folks lull you into a sense of a friendly happy workplace. then after hire , drive you crazy with constantly negative feedback, and there is absolutely no way they are ever wrong. This contributes to a dog eat dog environment. I was one of the top 5 producers, and not only did I not get the hours stated in the interview, they constantly nitpicked about everything. these are handbags for pete's sake, and no one is asking them to lower their standards, but a bit of example setting, and a less adversarial attitude would help.I have many years of retail sales experience, and I have rarely encountered a more hostile workplace. SHAME ON THEM

Pros

Reasonable pay, was basically offered what I asked for.

Cons

I have never encountered such awful, petty people in my life. As a new hire to the company, I was never given a proper chance to excel. I was given a poor on boarding, over 7 days, and then was expected to assume a well seasoned management role. I understand that a lot of learning comes from experience, but to have every single misstep documented is not the correct way to teach someone. In my interview, I was told that I would be leading with a team of managers who fostered positive, family environment. This couldn't be further from the truth. Everyone, other managers included, simply looks out for themselves. One of the perks I was told about was a work/life balance. No such thing exists. I understand that it's retail, and I know you have to schedule for the business, but there is no reason that I should be at work until 10pm every Friday and Saturday of the month when there is a team of 5 managers. The store manager bullies all of the associates and the managers, she . And the district manager? She says she is available for anything we may need, however, simply ignores emails.
