Pros

Clothes, best clothes in the market for quality, style, fit. It's a lifestyle brand where I can get work clothes, casual clothes, and mixing them all up for a new look. Also, you meet pretty awesome people. Discount is great.

Cons

They took everyones commission away, mine averaged an extra $3.00/hr, so I took a huge pay cut. No incentive to sell anymore. Upper management does not care about you - even if you've made top sales consecutively and made serious improvements on team/store level. I was a leader.

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.
