Pros

Great interaction with all associates. Everyone worked together and supported each other when needed. The associated helped in other departments when there was a shortage, not that they were complimented on by management.

Cons

* NO TRAINING!! How ironic that the "store trainer" was never given any proper training. "Oh we used to do that, but not anymore" is what I was told. The store manager then told me I was using it as a "crutch" and to just get over it and move it. * No respect given to the associates by management. They would usually talk AT you and not to you. * The never-ending quest for credits. When we were making credits, then the focus was on email. Enough was never enough. * Always understaffed. People were only getting 4 - 8 hours in a week, but they'd never give them more hours. With the holiday season fast approaching, they were told they'd be getting more hours. They didn't . Instead, more associates were hired. Gee, that makes complete sense. * Probably the worse job experience I've ever had. From lack of training and proper guidance, to a store manager who was OCD and constantly micro-managing all those around her.
