Pros

I LOVE the company, I love the title and the image that goes with working here, I love the people in my dept. and the customers we have. Discount is only 20% for the average associate but it goes a long way, especially during the events we had.

Cons

Our managers were young(er), so they acted young(er). They were childish and the only way get anywhere or be accepted was try and suck up and be their friend. It was like high school drama... there was talking behind peoples' back, all of that. I wish they didn't.

Pros

Decent base pay, somewhat autonomous, great tip potential.

Cons

The company has changed for the worse since COVID. When I came back the mood of the entire store had shifted. Gone were the days of comradery, customer focus, and taking pride in a job well done. In its place there is a new culture of cutthroat sales, a severe decline in customer focus, and worst of all a new focus on profit over customer satisfaction. When I was told that the amount the store charged for a shoe shine was not enough to do the best job I could for a customer I knew things had gone downhill for the company. Not to mention I watch a manager prey on a mentally disabled person in order to secure a sale, when the person could not understand what was being offered. Sad that such a once great company is now just another greed ridden corporation.
