Pros

It's a smaller company and they believe in promoting from within. I had zero management experience and they hired me for a key holder position. I was promoted to store manager 9 months later after the store manager was promoted to a larger store.

Cons

Need better allocation or merchandise and newer, fresher styles. The stores also need an update (décor, equipment, computers, high speed internet...stuck in the 90's) The only way you can get a raise is if you are promoted.

Pros

did promote from within--good bonus if you meet the sales projection---enjoyed the staff and customers---like the job but upper management was a problem and if they dont like you get ready for the unemployment line in which they will fight to the bone!!!!

Cons

Gees were do i begin long hours, no breaks, working 12 hr days "Alone" was told to only use a 100 per week sometimes 80 upper management is intimidated if you are smart and have education(opps dont want you to still thier job) no of your personal bs is ever private....hire disqualified people who cant count worth a dime so they can use and abuse them..i trained so many dummies sorry just sayin the truth...corporate does not handle investigations properly...after 2 years(despite over achieving) get ready to witness harassment b/c by now you are due for a raise that you will never see!!!! one more thing company is dirt cheap all of the register are from the 80's and we had to use boxes from frieght for garbage bc the cheapscape wont let you buy trash bags or hand sanitizer and wont get the carpert clean and expect you to get on all floors to get stains....do not train new managers very well...never does anything for employees....i knew employees business who i never seen before....dm lies to cover own butt and will throw you under the bus...lies lies lies....and more lies
