Pros

To say I do it for the money would be an understatement. The pay is great for managers and DM's, but minimum for associates. I've never been paid so much to essentially be told to work less.

Cons

If you are a true customer service specialist or an expert in clothing, this is not the place for you. I am an expert in men's wear with 10 years experience, and am treated terribly for being TOO knowledgeable. The company bases everything on chain of command, with the top receiving all the training. I've been a Co-Manager for almost a year and have yet to receive a single day of training. I'm capable enough to know how to do everything within the company, but every company is different. I can do it my way, but how can I do it the EXPRESS WAY if I don't know what that is?

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.
