Pros

Works well with School hours (college Student), Competitive pay and frequent raise opportunities.

Cons

Store hours, General Public, massive micro management, "to-do-lists" from every branch of management form General Office to Store managers to Dept managers. these lists are pictures taken from around the dept of small to large tasks which are then each given a small description and emailed to each dept and expected to be done ontop of daily duties. often cant complete due to guest traffic. Each department manager often thinks his or her department is most important and seldom offers help when others need it. BAD MANAGERS!!!!!!! They offer advancement opportunities, seldom act on them. You will often stay 30-60 mins late each day regardless of cleaning and sale set necessity.

Pros

40+ Hours per week of work guaranteed.

Cons

A toxic work environment can lead to termination without warning. Senior management prioritizes their interests and the company’s well-being, often disregarding employees’ rights and legal obligations. HR’s role is to protect senior management and the company, potentially at the expense of employees’ rights. Senior management continually chooses to a blind eye to wrong doing of favored employees, while knowingly prioritizing punishment of lower employees using fabricated policies that aren’t actually within store policy and procedures. Lack of accountability, lack of transparency, and lack of integrity run rampant with in the store and company. Unethical hiring practices, and weaponized incompetence to justify the out right gaslighting of your financial income and incentives. Pay deductions common place.
