Pros

-Great Benefits (Healthcare, 401k, etc.) -Sustainable and competitive business model for brick and mortar Storefronts -Opportunity to make creative displays -First dibs on the best products

Cons

-Lots of physical labor (I was averaging 30,000 steps a day) -poor work/life balance due to scheduling (not even the store manager has a good schedule) -Exposure to chaotic customers/crime rings/coworkers -Weirdly elitist higher up the food chain. -Bonus structure for managers doesn't match the accountability imposed on them. -Credit Card sales perks don't match the effort put into them. -Since it's a floating department space depending on inventory levels, fixtures should be designed to be more mobile and usable. The heavy wooden shelves don't make sense if you have to adjust on a daily basis.

Pros

Was easy to apply, Some of the workers were kind and helpful. Employee discount was okay.

Cons

Some parts of managment were harsh. They weren't approachable. Other were kind and wanted to help people grow. They pay wasn't great. Cut my hours during seasonal hiring months.
