Pros

You get 30 percent store wide discount probably that would be only pros

Cons

More contractor than fulltime Full time associates are not preferred for decision opinion or technical skills they are there to keep head count. Lack of management at all levels. Your health benefits does not start for two months from start of employment. For your last payement you have to come in person to collect the payment and you will not get assisted. hR department is unreachable. If you cannot treat your employees well I don’t think so anyone will get great customer experience. People have called down on the floor because of work pressure. All it control is with contractor you will regret Management hr department is not capable of handling it operations. You will be frustrated working here and even afterwards when you will try to reach out them. They had law suit filed by employees for discrimination against their own employee and contractor. You have to clean the garbage code written by contractor and there are directors at infrastructure is very toxic and will fight for no reason. They have most expensive health insurance you will end up paying 700 high deductible plans for family. They don’t know difference between blue collared workers and those working at warehouse. They want to hire and retain people while they treat software engineers at such Low level. Every associate working here is frustrated it’s not just one person either they don’t have choice or they are not talented enough to get the job or they are in their transition from services to product based company.

Pros

* If you have an amazing team and management the day goes by fast. * Commission. * Easy to rely on foot traffic to meet goals. * If you ask for growth, they set thing ups that align with what you want, you just need to ask.

Cons

* If its slow, its SLOW. * There can be drama, it just depends on the department you're in.

Pros

good pay, good retired tech/fashion prop sales, hour long lunches

Cons

terrible work environment with whole bunch of eating disorder talk and projection at models (even from some management), management makes everyone stay until 4:30 even when all the minimum work requirement (and oftentimes more) is done, they will write you up for something extremely small then dismiss a big thing from another employee, terrible communication between managers therefore terrible communication to employees, employees get publicly ridiculed when they're just asking questions even amidst the terrible communication issues that are already there,
