Pros

My Managers were always flexible with my availability, and my co-workers were great people that always were there to help. My direct manager always provided positive feedback.

Cons

Like any Sales Associate job - pay is low and working during the holiday season is exhausting. People are always complaining about the crappy pay at retail jobs, and the long hours, and managers getting on you about credit - that just means you need to get out of retail because the majority of chain stores are going to be that way.

Pros

The employee discount was good online and at other locations. Sometimes there were weekends with an extra employee discount which is great for an avid shopper.

Cons

The pay was terribly low, and the terrible management rarely listened to any associate complaints or concerns. The traffic in the store is low, which is of concern to commissioned employees. People who did not deserve promotions received them. Management played favorites and talked about associates they disliked openly.
