Pros

the music is good. for the most part.

Cons

Horrible managerial staff Sales are always stolen by whoever is working the register or they give them to their friends on the floor and managers don't believe you because they play favorites Raises are ridiculously bad If you get sick once in a blue moon the managers get all huffy and PO'd at you like it's the end of the world and think you're just faking it. Unless you're one of the favorites. Then it's A-OK and they'll just call someone in for you instead of making you go through and call your fellow associates yourself begging them to cover for you. Discount sucks

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.
