Payless ShoeSource

Is this your company?

Payless does not offer a fair balance of life and work. - Assistant Store Manager Payless ShoeSource Employee Review

Pros

Job security. If you do your work you are pretty much guaranteed a job in the future. And at a time when finding a job is difficult... this is a definite plus.

Cons

Payless wants you to be consumed by them at all times. If you are sick... too bad. If you have a vacation planned you had better let them know months in advance and you should probably leave town if you are management level, as I am, to make sure you ACTUALLY get a vacation. They are very demanding of your time on all levels: from the part time associate who goes to school full time and has a family to the manager who is running TWO stores for the company on a ONE store manager salary.
