Pros
-they pay slightly higher than other retail chains -- $12/hr in SF (almost $2 above minimum wage) -30% employee discount on regular priced merchandise -they are steadfast on employees taking the appropriate breaks following labor laws -they purchased pizza for the staff during SF Flagship's grand opening (though there's so many employees, not everyone got some.) -they offer overtime (and mandate it at other times...)
Cons
- mandated 12 hour shifts (many of them overnight --- MANY of them consecutive overnight and overtime shifts: 6 pm - 8 am shifts, 12am - 2 pm shifts, 11 pm - 8 am shifts, etc.) - not allowing us to call in sick or adjust our schedules for certain weeks - demanded we RUN through dangerous construction zones with no hardhats or protection while carrying heavy boxes (the construction workers were in dismay) - repeatedly scheduling us OUTSIDE of our availability and telling us they are unable to change it or that we need to use one of our only 3 allotted call-ins if we are unable to come in - scheduling employees OVER 40 HOURS when we all only agreed to be part-time, even when employees specifically state they CAN NOT work over 20 hours -- they are still scheduled for 42 hours - demanding we work in silence, often times entire shifts were done in complete silence - reprimanding employees for having any personal belongings on us while on the floor (chapstick, wallet, cellphone, TISSUES!!!) but yet not having a secure place to store these items in the break room or anywhere else (there are lockers, but not enough for all of the staff and even fewer have actual locks this is a company that doesn't care about their employees what so ever. very very very high turn over rate.
