Pros

discount across gap brands. 4 weeks paid time off to start. 100% 401k match. 100% tuition reimbursement for FT employees and managers.

Cons

Unrealistic expectations. Company constantly cuts payroll issued to the store. Three CEO changes in 1 1/2 years. Full realignment of all management positions to cut payroll and makeup for $10 hour promise. 4 market leaders in one year in NJ. NY upperfield leaders are out of touch, They push store GM's to focus on tasks and Jive and Instagram instead of the customer. Too much micro management
