Pros

I met a few helpful trainers.

Cons

Dishonest, no breaks, just a 30 min lunch for 8-10 hours of work. Working with DOS is laughable. No maternity leave. After spending more than $400 on equipment to meet their standards, a week of insane training on a software that is literally from 50 years ago. I could not get the classes done in time because their was always a computer glitch with their system. What a waste of time and money. I can't stress enough, it's not worth it! My first trainer literally yelled as she was teaching. Very unprofessional, and unpredictable as they let other people in training have more time to finish the next week. Also, the pronoun stuff is way out of hand. I respect everyone, but you shouldn't have to say it while you're introducing yourself. I'm not sure people with other pronouns want to be outed like that in the first place. This was by far the worst company I have ever dealt with. So disappointed as I was really excited to be a part of what I thought was an awesome company.

Pros

The ability to work from home and decent pay for retail.

Cons

There are some cons you might want to consider before taking the job: 1) The company HEAVILY micromanages you and I think they don’t trust their agents who are working from home which is a huge issue because what are team leads being paid for outside of watching our screens the entire day. You can be in a meeting which will require you to be idle for a period of time, but they will randomly message you posing as if they care about you but it is merely to check to see if you are at your desk. Also if you need to use the bathroom you have to report as if you are in elementary school about having to use the restroom. 2) They do not let you log into your computer or systems until your start time and you are only given 4 minutes of a grace period to be logged in, clock in and on the phone taking calls which is very unrealistic given their system moves extremely slow to load. 4) The only time you get breaks outside of lunch which is only 30 minutes, is when you work more than 8 hours so when you go through training you only get the 30 minute break within a 8 hour day which is beyond me. 5) LandsEnd has a LONG way to go in regards to diversity in upper management, this not matter to some but some people care about seeing diversity and not everyone looking the same.
