Pros

Great training for a first-time job. They also give a decent employee discount (30% off)

Cons

Unequal pay. As soon as I found out they were paying new hires (with zero work experience!) more than I was making as an employee who had been working there for ~1.5 years, I brought this up with management. They said I am "ineligible" for a raise because I wasn't making their impossible store goals. As soon they told me this, I quit. They're also sexist. Another coworker I had run into months later said that she was told she needs to "dress up more" and "wear more makeup" in order to land a management position.

Pros

Have met some amazing coworkers. Brand itself is fun.

Cons

Sudden Return to Work mandate 3 days in NY or OH SIX years after COVID. Any current employees outside of those states are being let go if they don’t uproot their lives and relocate. Many employees in those states built their lives around what seemed to be a permanent remote flexibility arrangement (most companies went back in 23). When Hillary Super came on she even stated in one of her first Q&A’s on remote work that where people do their jobs wasn’t a big concern for her as long as we continued to drive the business forward. The business is doing the best it ever has in the last five years. Leadership reasoning for mandate is continuing to fall flat. Mandate came absolutely out of NOWHERE.
