Pros

A pay check(I would add free candy, but upper management told us we couldn't eat the samples anymore)

Cons

Extremely toxic upper management. You'll be micromanaged, lied to, and put in danger(they let aomeone start working before they cleared their background check, turns out they lied about something and was told to leave the store, this person also had sketchy behavior that made people uncomfortable). Upper management does not give managers the opportunity to lead and develop staff. ALL hiring, firing, and promotions are done by them, which often is mishandled and causes horrible employees to cause chaos and get away with it. Company cares only about its product and not about employees. I would NEVER apply here again!

Pros

The team at store level is great to work with.

Cons

If you have family, you have absolutely no holiday time to enjoy to be with them if you work at store level. Corporate gets to be with their families but yet they expect you to stop living your life just for them. You are not allowed to take any vacation time during holiday season only during summer. But then when summer comes, they expect you to still be there because they have you doing 1000 inventories 1000 unnecessary conference calls and many unnecessary projects. Corporate does not take any accountability when something goes wrong. They constantly blame store level to fix their problems. Communication is horrible and organization is horrible. If you like, giving up your life and living for Sees Candies this job might be for you.
