Pros

There are some great people that work for this company that genuinely care about the employees and our customers. They truly want to make things better for both employees and customers.

Cons

The expectations are very high of all employees. The "new" systems require everything to be completed at a very detailed level in order to be accurate. Basic tasks take too much time to complete so the only option to do your job well is to work 12+ hours and weekends. This workload is fine during peak seasons but is not sustainable for years on end.

Pros

I loved my job. I’m met so many wonderful people. And the associates couldn’t have been better.

Cons

I hurt myself and had to have surgery, and I was on Worker’s Comp. with limited availability. Because hours were short in operations, they made up this crazy position and wanted me to be ”lead” of the markdown team. I knew that meant for the most part to do go backs. I told them I wasn’t allowed to be on my feet that long and so she said they couldn’t accommodate me and I had to leave. And then the manager had the nerve to call their workers comp and told them I wasn’t coming into work. The management at that time was horrible. But there was a time when I first started working there that to store manager, and the assistant manager were wonderful. We were all so sad they left, but it didn’t take this new manager that I was talking about any time at all to lose almost the entire store associates.
