Pros

Decent pay, bonuses, and laid back easy job

Cons

Horrible Management, VP of company forced us to work in store with no AC for nearly two months. After I got promoted to full time I had to email my manage every week because I wasn't getting the 24 hours that I was supposed to be guaranteed. I was once acused of stealing anpack of facemasks that had my name on them that I left in the break room. Management doesn't care about racist micro agressions, or racist attitudes towards black employees. White employees are able to do whatever and leave when they want but if a black employees tries to call out it's an entire issue. This was witnessed several times. I had several calls and exchanges with management in my two years there. The CEO is nice but doesn't give a damn about the Atlanta market because our store was suffering because of bad management and nothing was done. Development plans do not exist, you will remain an educator unless you are popular with management. I can honestly go on for days about how horrific this place was to work at. If you do apply I strongly suggest against applying at the Pince City Markrt location in Atlanta Georgia. Lastly we had to pay for parking which cost over a hundred dollars a month and that hurt to say the least.

Pros

Great team environment with supportive coworkers and positive culture. Strong emphasis on personal growth, communication, and leadership development. Flexible scheduling and a workplace that values health, wellness, and work-life balance

Cons

Can be fast-paced during peak hours and requires strong multitasking. Expectations can be high at times, especially around guest experience and store standards.

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!
