Pros

Lives up to cultural values! Invested in training teams & developing internal talent - amazing entry level & field opportunities to grow. Clients want your engagement! Store footprints are small, have a local small business family feel. Reporting & tools are amazing! Work/Life Balance - operating hours are reasonable and while we experience traditional retail holiday peaks, there are no chaotic extended hours and mass seasonal hiring. Benefits & perks are amazing! Bonus program is a achievable!

Cons

Technology could use an update. Opportunity with external theft in some locations & stores need more security. Need more inventory. Not enough investment in training hours - we have amazing tools & trainers, this will help retention. Recognition has increased but company needs to recognize tenure/anniversaries, top performing store managers, samples & gratis could be better.

Pros

My store manager and team were wonderful! If you make the right moves you can move up the ladder reasonably quickly,

Cons

You can move up the ladder quickly because turnover is so high. Management will lie to you and tell you whatever you want to hear to keep you from leaving. Your experience is entirely dependent on who your store manager is and if they are willing to advocate for you. District management does not care about employees.
