Pros
Monthly clinics -Account execs from brands come in and discuss the current collections, sometimes the actual designer comes in, which is exciting! Discount - Cash/ BG card only everything is already so expensive the discount barely makes a dent!
Cons
"Don't- This is the ugly side of retail" - this review explains everything perfectly. Don't take this job just because of the name. There is virtually no training for MA's unless you're lucky enough to have a good AB. Depending on your division you will be thrown into the deep end with little to no help. Culture - The culture is terrible and is one of the least friendly places to work, unless you fit into the "BG mold". Get ready to go out of your way to make connections because getting a "Good Morning" is hard enough. It's a very superficial environment and it shows. 5 days of vacation, a few sick days, and 2 personal days, BG doesn't really care whether you have a personal life outside of the office (unless you take days unpaid). Salary - Hourly, 9-6, most MA's hourly rates vary (enough to make you question it), MA's are generally college grads and are treated as disposable. Overall for the work you'll put in and the constant stress the pay is not worth it. Overall this company is extremely disconnected and dysfunctional and the name overpowers that. There has been a lot of movement i.e. transitions and re-orgs with ZERO plan of action. For such an "established" company the communication is pitiful, the work environment is depressing, and there is not much to look forward to everyday. This was truly a burn out, soul sucking job and I really don't recommend it.
