Pros

Workforce at the stores are friendly and caring. Prestigious titles for a business card. On the cusp of brick and mortar changes. Brand name well known. Empowerment of associates make them feel part of the team and a mover/shaker.

Cons

Being told to do more with less, constantly. Pay is not competitive to keep top talent. More trust and ability for stores to make change without constant corporate oversight. Aggressive goals that are not part of trend for the area that set up stores to fail and people to not make bonuses, esp when their data indicates customers are moving towards online purchasing. Inventory management is non-existent and lack of dedicated support to fix. Sending more emails does not mean better communication.
