Pros

20% discount (even though it isnt that much) Other employees are pretty cool Cool workplace Cool music Cool clothes and accessories

Cons

Management can be downright terrible, sometimes the managers will be on your case just telling you to work faster, shove promotions down customers throats, and constantly tell them what is going on. They don't pay us enough for us to be treated like slaves. 5 Enter to wins an hour, must reach goals, constantly check up on customers even when they've been checked up on by 4 other employees. It can all depend on management but if youre like me and have 2 managers that play exactly by the book then you will be screwed.

Pros

- Enjoyed working with teens/young adults and building them up into the workforce/ teaching them responsibilities -Policies were awesome, but not always backed by upper management - Always pushing you to be better

Cons

- Upper management did not have equal expectations of stores/ lacked clear communication -PAY, they will pay someone who is hired external far more then they ever will an internal. Doesn’t matter how long you’re there. I was trained from a seasonal, all the way up and made far less than newer peers. They do not see as much value in internals which is so unfortunate for them. Did my 8 years and have a lot of resentment over this.
