Pros

Discounted clothing, Uniqlo is located in pretty nice fashion areas

Cons

Convinced this is a cult. This was possibly the worse experience I've ever had at a retail job. My first week I basically had to chase down the management to be trained, the girl i was shadowing was constantly running away. Instead of letting you know when you are doing something wrong managers will instead whisper passively about you and fix your mistakes after you leave. They seem to forget most employees have school and outside lives and kept us two hours after our scheduled time each day if they felt the floors weren't up to their standards.

Pros

You learn a lot of the business; scheduling and payroll, labor management, how to create a daily workflow to accomplish business objectives. You're provided with detailed insights into a store's operations- it's P&L statement, total inventory and how convert key data into actionable plans. Simply put, you are challenged and will learn a lot.

Cons

Company and store experience varies greatly by store location. Unfortunately, management favoritism results in certain individuals getting better treatment and greater access to professional opportunities. Additionally, Company HR is very tepid when addressing store issues pertaining to behaviors exhibited by store management towards associates. Scheduling can be very inflexible and unaccommodating.
