Pros

30 percent discount , some cool coworkers and supervisors, one hour break, they work with your schedule if you have school or another job

Cons

Low pay, micro management , favoritism is BIG , even when you work hard the managers promote who they like best, small break rooms , it's all bout the standards nothing is ever perfect for them, the clothes have to be a-ranked or at least b-ranked to open the store (they rank the clothes by how it is folded) you have to pass a test in order to be promoted, they want you to act like robots , memorize the six standard phrases, smile all day and walk with a "sense of urgency" if there is even a little bit of dust on the shelf the store fails the look through by upper management

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.
