HomeSense- Associate Review

Pros

Some of the other associates become like family. But of course, whether or not this happens depends on you, as well as the people you wok with.

Cons

Your employers take advantage of you. If you're not careful, they will try to not pay you for the full amount of hours you've worked. When you catch this, it can sometimes take several months to get the money you are owed. They give minimal pay raises.
