Typical corporate job

Pros

Amazing team members that are passionate about their job. Pay is decent.

Cons

A typical corporate job that sucks their employees dry and expects them to accommodate their lives to their schedule. Hours are grueling. If you address a problem to a manager they will just cut your hours and let you know how replaceable you are.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Retail hours are definitely geared around the business needs and it's always a tough balance when scheduling. Please reach out to your Regional HR Manager if you'd like to discuss your situation further. Best of luck to you, Angie Miller VP-HR

Pros

Discounts and great management make it hard to leave. The average employee is cool I've made a lot of friends from this workplace.

Cons

At the end of the day it's a retail job so you're going to deal with angry customers or have to stay late because of stubborn customers that won't leave.
