Pros

Great atmosphere to work. Management overall want to see you succeed at your job. Training could be better, but it prepares you adequately for the work you will perform. Co-workers are friendly, and you can engage as much or as little as you want with them. Benefits including 401k and health insurance are great after you work for them for one year.

Cons

Hours aren't always there especially if you are a sales employee. Leadership pathways are not clear cut if you want to advance, so be wary if you want to grow. Because you are in retail the pay is reflective of the industry.
