Pros

Pay is comparable for those starting their first job, but don't expect much in the way of pay raises. Scheduling is very flexible, clothing is of very good quality with a great price. Has a very good customer base. Benefits are very, very good!

Cons

This is definitely not a job for someone who really needs the hours. Hours one week could be 20 hours and then the next week they could be 4 hours. If you can get in with a good Regional, District, and Store manager you will love the job, but if not, it's not worth the stress. It's also very hard to move up within the company. Seems like they tend to not hire within the company. Not sure for the reasoning...may be afraid of losing their own job if they are not doing it well.

Pros

30% off discount – Nothing else

Cons

This company exhibits a daily fluctuation in its attitudes and approaches, affecting both employee interactions and customer service. Managers are not protected from customer complaints, and customer service consistently prioritizes customer satisfaction over factual investigations. District managers can be either supportive and understanding or dismissive and unprofessional. Some district managers may even encourage employees to resign due to their negative attitude. I have personally experienced multiple instances where district managers reacted negatively to a simple “no.” This behavior, coupled with the managers’ excessive workload and lack of recognition, has led to employee frustration and breakdowns. While the district manager for Georgia expresses a desire to change the company culture, the current culture remains unchanged, characterized by superficial gestures of “fake smiles” and “fake support.” The company’s practices are exploitative, and employees are constantly reminded of their replaceability and lack of value. This toxic work environment has created a hostile and unpleasant atmosphere.
