Pros

I made great relationships with the people I worked with that I still keep in touch with

Cons

You will get tricked into thinking this is the best company then people show their true colors. Management is horrible and two sided. I asked my manager on multiple occasions how my performance was and received the same response everytime that it was great and I had nothing to worry about. I never had a performance review or any write ups. Fast forward to a month later, I was fired in front of everyone for “performance” without being given any type of examples of where it was bad when I asked. The woman who fired me was never a fan of me and it was obvious that day. I am not the first or the last person she has done this to either. It is pretty evident the kind of leader she is based on the insane turnover within her department. People who grow in the company are people who kiss managers butts instead of doing good work.

Pros

Customers are largely nicer than average retail. If you get a good local management team, it is bearable. Playlist is long enough that you don't go insane. Charity programs are nice. Local management does tend to really work around your schedule as much as possible.

Cons

Pay is awful for the level of service required. Uniforms are so strict they limit your makeup and require jewelry. Feels like you have to dress as some weird tradwife denim fetish. The "Christianity" is performative at best with the low necklines. If you are large chested, you are required to cover up your cleavage with a bando you must pay for because they decided how low the uniform necklines are. And corporate can never be wrong so you are the source of sin, obviously.
