Business Outlook
Pros
Fun environment, not stressful, great discount... 30% off regular price, 50% off sale items and 60% off select items. Part time employees are eligible for health insurance, as low as $9 a week. And you get paid every week.
Cons
Sometimes JCrew customers have unreasonable expectations and we have to acquiesce regardless. The pay is low and you end up spending your check on their clothes because of the great discount. The commission is only .5% and if you don't make a certain amount of sales (selling cost) they will cut your pay. The personal shoppers cut in on your customers and take your sales, so it's hard to make your "selling cost".
