Pros

Discount to VF brands (North Face, Vans, Dickies, etc).

Cons

Some of the worst management at a corporate level.. Bad direction and little to no understanding when it comes to metrics, sales tactics, and morale in store.

Pros

Depending on District/Store great culture. Awesome discounts and bonus incentives for full time management. Relatively lenient on being able to use your discretion with difficult customers, "What Would Van Doren Do?" - basically make the customer happy reasonably. Great position to learn retail and people management in - applied itself to any career field later on.

Cons

Job Security (retail and working in malls in today's landscape can be tough depending on location). Corporate can be corporate sometimes, DMs or RMs pushing unreasonable and ridiculous selling behaviors sometimes.
