Pros

Enjoy my co-workers and great culture Work life balance Employee discount

Cons

Poor IT/systems 'competitive pay' if you know what I mean Not the top tier line of finance professionals, but then again it is Retail so to be expected. Top line performance over the years and management's inablity to change it Need to fight to get recognition of achievements

Pros

I worked at 2 stores: loved one, hated the other. The first one was one of the largest in the country and the management was pretty good (although too many cooks in the kitchen). Opportunities to advance were awesome. Environment was fun, professional and supportive. Then I transferred states and stores. The new store was run poorly and it showed--high employee turnover, disorganized management and low morale.

Cons

Hands-off corporate management can be good or bad, depending on the quality of store managers. Store management is like a private club.

Pros

It's a big company with great brand recognition. They also some of the best benefits out there.

Cons

Senior Management turnover and lack of company focus/ direction creates many challenges. Work/ life balance not good, particularly in Design, Production & Merchandising.
