Pros

good discount, fun and laid back people working on store level.

Cons

I left my other job for an opportunity to work in a higher volume setting. I'm getting paid just slightly more and working 10-15 hours more per week. My pay plan looked promising but I know I'm not going to make anything near what I was told. My co and I work 6 days a week every single week. I am probably going to have to fire half my staff because they don't sell enough socks, even though we are pulling out above LY and making sales goals every single week. When I interviewed for the position it was talked up so much and I am extremely disappointed with what it has been like. It amazes me what Genesco can get away with. I rarely ever hear from my DM... or my RD... or anyone else from home office. This is not the company to work for if you have a family. your store will be your life.
