Great Experience So Far!

Pros

The J.Crew distribution center is a great place to build up your resume if your looking for experience. You are constantly engaged with customers from all over the U.S. and must quickly solve customer conflicts on a daily basis. This position also helps with communication skills, as you are on the phone through the duration of your shift. Proper usage of words and verifying important information is something you can take to any position you looking for in the future.

Cons

Some of the management staff may look like they are not doing much. Their main purpose is to assist you if you have any major questions, which is helpful the first week on the call center floor. After that first week however, you may see them shooting the breeze with other associates while you are bombarded with customer calls. They are a great help, but it may be smarter to have conversations that are non-work related away from working associates.

Pros

Excellent employee discount program and plenty of staff training to make one feel connected to the company and its vision

Cons

Retail work isn't always an exciting and fulfilling career, and with a small salary it can be downright difficult to stay positive

Pros

Fun environment. Easy going group with quality product. Makes it easy to market. Commission on big orders is not bad and employee discount is good too

Cons

Not the best place to work if you get tired of looking at fashion all day. I can be boring and dealing with customers is not always fun
