Pros

The discount on clothing was a definite perk working as a store associate. You received up to 60% off items.

Cons

The manager at the Bridgewater, NJ location was a phony. Had very little trust in/respect for employees. The pay was also very minimal. I was making $8.50 starting and after a year was given a $.25 raise. Commission was hardly anything and you were required to be "on-call" which was a very ineffective and unfair situation.

Pros

There are a lot of talented, hardworking people at this company, which makes recent leadership decisions even more frustrating.

Cons

Communication around major organizational changes has been vague and inconsistent, leaving employees with significant uncertainty and little confidence in the direction of the business. Morale has declined considerably. Many employees feel that years of experience, performance, and institutional knowledge are being undervalued in favor of rigid policies and top-down decision making.
