Pros

Good pay, great benefits, health insurance, paid birthday off, generous vacation days for full timers.

Cons

As with many companies, it comes down to management. Specifically, corporate management. They come down hard on store management who then come down harder on you. Also, it's too difficult to get promoted based on work ethic. Their promotion system is flawed. You essentially have to train yourself for the position you want but due to your current daily duties and the constant flow of customers, it's practically impossible to find time do this. This causes a very strong feeling of discouragement with sales advisors and you feel like you're never moving forward. If you're lucky, a manager/visual will pick you as their "favorite" and pull you aside to shadow them.

Pros

Benefits even for part-timers is a huge win! Sick leave, vacation, and community days. Nice management and really friendly coworkers. Decent employee discount. Diverse and welcoming environment.

Cons

Very stressful work environment considering the low pay. Poorly managed and operated. They clearly try to run lean and do as much work with as few people as possible. Very unprofessional overall and a lot of greenwashing.
