Pros

J. Crew Management obviously knows how to pick the right people to work for them. The employees are exceptionally wonderful to work with. Everyone is friendly, helpful and there is a great sense of team work. Employees are cross trained in everything, stock, cashier, sales and cleaning the store.

Cons

Way underpaid. This is the first high end brand I've worked for that paid $8.50 an hour. Discounts are ok, but if you are only scheduled less than twenty hours a week, it doesn't help to buy anything because you're not getting nearly enough.

Pros

The company prides itself on everyone using their best judgment, you don't have to look towards a handbook to make decisions, this gives a strong sense of morale throughout the work place.

Cons

There are not many ways to move up, many workers do very little to get by and those that do great rarely get recognized.
