Pros

- culture is great - staff are very friendly, people you will remain friends with for life - fitness class benefit promote a healthy lifestyle and saves you a lot of money

Cons

- unsupportive environment - management expected you to do everything even though the company doubled in size - was told not to take vacation for an extended period of time - could not continue school because I couldn't take time off to write exam - was discriminated for being single and therefore told it was ok to work overtime - management didn't care about you as long as you got the job done - culture that is advertised is NOT practiced in real life

Pros

Compensation Culture Autonomy Product Benefits

Cons

If you can’t prioritize your time, it can be easy to feel out of balance. I feel that at times and need to shift but with a strong leader, there’s always support to do that.

Pros

The benefits with the sweaty Pursuits is good and the insurance is good too! You get a team that you get to put together and get to know them and see what works for you guys to be successful in a processing shift!

Cons

The nights are long and very overworked. They ask a lot from you and usually they put the business before you. It’s always we need this and that from the managers but not actually taking time to help or to actually see that we are trying our best and if they actually worked a shift with us and saw the struggles they would understand more. They think it’s easy, when the weight of the store depends on us. You are also qualified as a Guest Experience lead since you have to do both trainings so the management do over utilise that and you will be doing two jobs. Even though it says in the description to support the floor but there’s a difference between supporting from time to time and doing it all the time where you are running the floor and the back at the same time but they’ll say “oh why isn’t this done?” Maybe because you’ve told me to help you out ? The are also very selective about who moves up to be a manager. No work life balance at all!
