Express reviews

Only managers can be full time, so no benefits for anyone. Also usually short shifts, only 4 hours long most days.

- You should expect to stay at least 1-2 hours after your shift is supposed to end, especially when doing overnight floor sets. you don't always get to leave when they tell you can leave - managers make it very, very difficult to get your shifts covered, they tend to not approve them. - you need to reach certain quotas and goals, which is not bad, but may be stressful when having a slow day - NO benefits or bonuses - sales associates are paid minimum wage ($7.25) and the only way to raise that is to become a "fashion expert" which is not encouraged by managers, you have to fight for it or threaten to leave - managers do not encourage you to move up in the company or make an advance in your career - it is an incredible amount of work and time compared to the small amount you are paid - balancing work life, school life, and social life is extremely difficult because the job eats up all your time. - if you are new, you may only get 5-10 hours average a week. hours tend to vary. - no set schedule. you only receive your weekly schedule a week in advance, it's hard to plan your life around that - i've been working for the company for one year, i handle the floor sales as well as the registers and they say that i am one of their most valued employeed. even still, i have had no raise or promotion and it doesnt seem like i will be getting one anytime soon
