Pros

The people are great (sometimes depending on the store). There is a lot of energy.

Cons

The pay is much lower than it was before the economy crashed. Raises were frozen for a year. The raises are not as much as they used to be. There is NO incentive to work hard. If you work hard, you will be used during peak hours in peak locations (fitting room, cash wrap), but there is no incentive to this.

Pros

Could manage the business as I saw fit as through the lens of a business owner

Cons

Training was minimal and in a location very different than my future store. Staff I inherited was horrible and leadership was not transparent about the status of the store in regards to profitability and issues within the store or company for that matter. Company declared bankruptcy about 5 months after I started and closed my location. Not a great experience.
