Pros

Working with beautiful merchandise is nice but you are discouraged from using any common sense in placement of goods. Push as much onto the counter as possible and don't waste any time making it pretty.

Cons

Very unstable work environment. They actually call you the day before you are scheduled (weeks in advance) to work and tell you your shift is cancelled, sorry. The only goal of this company is "make money' at all costs and absolutely at the employees cost.

Pros

it is a job if you desperately need one

Cons

management does not keep promises (e.g. I was promised $2 higher pay upon accepting the position and later was told it wasn't feasible anymore once starting. I was also promised a specific day off then last minute had it revoked because they decided to make it a mandatory day). management does not listen to or care about its employees, very unprofessional. store managers don't want to do anything to help, they just sit in the office. management let other employees slack off and do nothing and expected others to compensate for their lack of effort general manager was horribly rude and misogynistic. he threw a box at someone while visiting.
