Pros

Great discount, benefit and vacation!

Cons

The Operations Team is under trained. Managers are over worked and under appreciated. Scheduling system is computer generated and can't be edited. Has no idea of how to properly staff an area. Associates have too much square footage to cover and customers walk forever before they can find help. Signage system stinks because the correct signs are sometimes not available to set the sale. The bonus buys are not exciting and do not draw customers in. Supplies are frequently unavailable. The checkout system is antiquated. Item locator is crammed down your throat but you are still held accountable for making your sales goal. Doesn't make sense.

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.
