Pros

The only relatively enjoyable "pro" about working at this location are the other associates who share the same negative associations with this company.

Cons

I've worked at a number of large retail companies for nearly a decade. This is by far one of the worst experiences to date.

Pros

Amazing coworkers, kind and friendly managers. Plus pretty good discounts on the clothes. It's a really great work environment especially for retail.

Cons

The salary is pretty low considering the price of the clothes and associates rarely get discounts on the new/trendy denim.
