Pros

Competitive employee discounts… health insurance for full time and part time dental. With stores opening there is alot of room to grow and advance. The time and effort the company outs in to training and developing you is great. They really want to create and promote a healthy knowelegeable working environment.

Cons

Expect you to make miracles happen with low payroll. But that is typical in retail. They also have unrealistic expectations of gaining clients and having events in suburban stores

Pros

Good time-off package. Holiday week off for office employees. Historically respected work-life balance and flexible working. Good employee discount and maternity leave.

Cons

C-suite pushing a mandatory 3 days in-office after 5+ years of boasting flexibility as a cornerstone of their employee benefits package. Lack of clear and thoughtful communication of this new policy was frustrating and disheartening as an employee. Leadership, starting with the CEO, is at an all-time low of the last 6 years of working in their corporate office. Horrifying to see how poorly initiatives are getting rolled out, likely getting pushed down from board of directors. Would anticipate a rough transition into the company if you choose to take a role replacing the dozens of employees possibly being forced to leave the company due to RTO.
