Pros

- Well accredited training program that recruits from top retailing universities. A good place to launch a career in buying/planning - Fun and friendly coworkers - Exposure to great vendor representatives who can open doors for you in your career later on.

Cons

- Lowest pay ( on the buying side) I have heard of among all corporate retailers in the SF Bay Area - The advancement of your career path is much slower than advised by HR, depending on family of business. - Workload is not comparable at the AB level in different families of business, which attributes to unfair career advancement
