Pros

Fun environment, lots of bonuses, great if you love fashion, meet a lot of interesting people, good music, laid back, charitable company. Working retail is never going to be amazing but Buffalo Exchange was the best retail experience I ever had, it's a great company that I still support.

Cons

The only thing I didn't like was the heavy focus on walking in circles and chatting up customers when there was hardly anyone in the store, you end up feeling like a creep just wandering and annoying people for the sake of showing the manager you're engaging with customers.

Pros

you learn a lot about clothes

Cons

literally the worst job i can possibly imagine. you’re expected to be on top of register, buying in clothes, customers stealing, dressing room, talking to the customers on the floor, counting in and out the money, etc 100% all of the time. they expect you to overextend yourself the entire shift. i have never had to be on top of so many things in my life. i have more responsibilities than the MANAGERS at my last job do for far less pay. and we are in downtown portland so we get a lot of theft and have to deescalate mental health crises constantly. every employee i’ve talked to has agreed with me that they’ve never felt like a bad employee before working here. i pride myself on being smart and helpful and quickly learning the rules of any environment im in but i’ve never felt more stupid in my life. there is literally no time to take a breath in the entire 8hr shift
