Pros

Through my training, I felt prepared to complete tasks independently. I felt comfortable at work and had a great time assisting customers, especially regulars. People really begin to trust you about their clothing choices. Hanging and sorting the clothes can be a pain but you get used to it...sort of.

Cons

You might end up with some pompous co-workers. People who think they are God's gift to the fashion world. But that could happen anywhere. If you don't like dusting, hanging and sorting clothes, and talking to customers, this may not be the job for you.

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
