      Pros

      Enjoy most aspects of working here. Salary is ok. Vacation and sick leave good and other benefits like discount and insurance are also nice. Summer Friday's a big plus.

      Cons

      Back stabbing and unprofessional behavior running rampant. Fear and intimidation tactics used in Corporate. In my Dept, employees are like a revolving door. We fear each day and office culture is very poor

      Good place to work but not to build a career.

      Pros

      Really good work/life balance. Great location for the HQ in the East Village. Senior IT leadership are making changes for the better. Nice amount of vacation days.

      Cons

      The place is a bit of a circus sometimes. There are a bunch of very dramatic personalities that can be tough to deal with. Positive changes are hard to implement due to the very political nature of the environment. People get very comfortable with confusing and roundabout processes that constantly stop working. The original codebase is very tough to work with. You must be a self motivated person to change things or else be trapped constantly patching broken systems. Compensation is way below market value.

      Pros

      Overall, good job-- especially to work part time while attending school or something of that nature. Retail is retail, but I did feel like the Managers looked out for the younger sales associates.

      Cons

      things can get feisty between associates and personal shoppers, but as long as you have a good attitude- things are fine. Dealing with customers of course can be a pain whenever you are working with the public.
