Pros

30% discount for employees, can be used on family but not friends. Had some great coworkers. Allowed unnatural colors and nails, no overly strict uniform. Working with the customers was almost always great!

Cons

Manager was terrible, made the workplace very toxic. Everyone is afraid to go to her with any questions, and she is constantly breaking company rules. Hours were bad, could have weeks where I only worked four hours. Too overstaffed but people kept getting hired. Shipments were almost always filled with stuff we already had overstock on, and we had items that we were completely out of stock on that we would never get shipped.
