Pros

It's a relatively easy job at store level ... 20% discount A good retail experience as far as experience goes ..

Cons

Honestly like the title says ... It's a min wage job ! Management is way to pushy ! In professionalism to the max ! If we had way more coverage then we would meet sales goals The survey we push does not have realistic expectations Email prompt annoying , we need loyalty cards !!!! Customers prefer it over these emails they receive !!!

Pros

Fast paced, enjoyed working with young enthusiastic staff, casual dress. Potentially a fun work environment, decent employee discount on affordable goods.

Cons

The manager at the location I worked was much more concerned with his own upward mobility than he was with customer service. Employee turn over was rapid, I was hired as a key holder and was told that staff rarely lasted past 90 days. Only one member on staff had been there a year. There were only three women on staff and there was a climate of disrespect bordering on misogyny. I overheard two members of management making inappropriate remarks and when they realized I was listening they apologized profusely but sadly this was business as usual. Management was more concerned with whether the T-shirts were folded perfectly than if staff was well trained in customer service. Customers complained constantly that lines were too long because of inadequate staff coverage.
