Pros

That was my first job and I had no experience at all but district manager saw the potential in me and gave me the opportunity and I made him proud throughout the year i spent there. He was very friendly and down to earth and made me enjoy working there. By far the best supervisor i have ever had.

Cons

Starting pay is a little bit too low. (Minimum wage)

Pros

There is nothing good to say about this company!

Cons

Computer system is horribly outdated. Inventory could be handled so much better, but corporate doesn't want to hear from the stores. If any maintenace is needed on the stores, corporate wants the staff to fix it ,or get family or friend to fix it, so they can be cheapskates, and get people to do it for free. The staff is supposed to control shoplifting, but corporate does nothing to help the staff, usually leaving 1 person in the store at a time. No direct deposit for the employees, which causes employees to pay fees at banks because there is no direct deposit option. Oh, and yes, a pay raise??????? Not as long as you work at Shoe Show, you will be making the same rate unless you get promoted??? Yeah right! There is no way of applying for other positions, because there is no way to access a list. Their motto should be "keep making me money and we will keep doing nothing for you"! Employees have no feeling that corporate cares, because they know they don't!

Pros

On good(busy) days sales rack up meaning a good commission for that day. A little discount. You get to meet many different people. You get to see many parents yell and curse at their bad children. Great employees and mangers. So is the district manager(to me he's cool). I get time off for school. We get breaks if you work for a certain amount of hours. We have walkie-talkies Not boring at all. If you have OCD, this is the perfect job

Cons

OLD and OUTDATED SYSTEMS we use dial-up no break room will never get a raise unless i move to another position but that would only be about a dollar more an hour no direct deposit get paid on saturday not friday shoes need to be better organized(mainly by sizes) in front and back of store I HATE not having music while I work
