Pros

Snacks they provide occasionally and nice people to work with. You get to meet nice people in the program. Corporate team is kind, retail team is down right awful.

Cons

One of the worst jobs I have had in my entire life. Verbally and emotionally abused daily by upper management. Expected perfection with low pay. No structure at all with your scheduling or training program, high turnover of upper management. Some weeks working upwards of 50-60 hours. Management is probably some of the worst, super jaded and brain washed by the company. Perfection is expected, down to the t. How you talk, walk, and dress is all micromanaged by management. Expected to clean the toilets on the daily. As a college graduate, avoid this job at all costs. If you would like work/life balance, don’t even bother. You will be expected to work 150% at all times. No downtime at all. Constantly on your feet, hauling giant boxes. Working on shipment, folding clothes for hours, and truly just punished based on if managers like you. One of the managers constantly hid the snacks THE COMPANY provided. Honestly, super crazy they even have this program. Targeting early grads for their insane expansion. Oh and if your reason is sustainability, don’t even bother. Most trash produced ever. They expect absolute perfection.

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.
