Pros

Coworkers were fun to be around, and made the tedious work more bearable. We specifically bonded while complaining about the management & its lack of enthusiasm & communication. This particular store was waaayyy different than Buffalo's overall company attitude, and I've heard that Kerstin Block is very nice. I wish I could've worked at a different location.

Cons

Managers at the East Village store were very power hungry, could be offensive (racist), and were quite selfish.

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
