Pros

-Laid back environment -Few, but not all, good co-workers -50% off employee discount -Enjoyed majority of the product

Cons

Alright, so here comes the long list of cons, so lets try to break it down as simple as possible -Immature management. No manager experience at all. Get's "verbal" warnings for poor performance 5 times but hasn't been terminated at all. -Sales get pushed down your throat. No sales, no hours for you or anyone. -Sales transform your co-workers into greedy, filthy, lying, "sharks" and will do anything to take any of your "deals" or "sales". -Everything is taken way too seriously for a very small company and they ALWAYS expect for you to make goal everyday and every week, even though retail is UNPREDICTABLE. -Disorganized company in general. Whenever updates come in, there is always some sort of mistake made or something is just totally off and doesn't make sense at all. -My personal experience, I do not get treated fairly AT ALL and my manager plays "favorites" and listens to any white lies my co-workers make about me, JUST so they can get me in trouble on PURPOSE and degrade any hard work I put into this store. -Little pay little hours for so much work and responsibility that is put onto your shoulders -DM will criticize every little bitty thing you do and say no matter what (and usually disrespectful too) -No recognition of hard work, effort, or make any really big sales And there might be some other information I am forgetting, but this is my personal experience and other peoples reviews are very similar to what I am currently going through. It was my favorite store in the world that I loved so dearly for many years has now completely changed my perspective around of the company. So please, do not waste your time here if you want REAL hours, REAL pay, and a REAL work environment. You'll find much better opportunity than here, I promise.
