Pros

A decent employee discount and other staff members were often friendly and pleasant to work with. Working there also means you may get first dibs on new merchandise or markdowns.

Cons

Terrible, ever-changing schedule; rude customers; constantly having to clean up a perpetually disorganized store; underpaid for effort. This is not a job for anyone who has a real work ethic and cares about what they do - your efforts will go unappreciated by managers and customers alike.

Pros

This was my first job, and this was the first company that I applied to that responded to me. They are likely to hire inexperienced workers and give them experience to take with them. Working here gave me something to put on my resume.

Cons

In exchange for hiring inexperienced workers, the company pays barely above minimum wage for a store associate position and frequently does not raise the pay of the trained workers who have earned higher pay than they actually receive. In addition to this, the managers have little respect for their employees' well-being; the main focus is on the amount of money the managers make and the company makes. As an employee who actually did my job well, I received too little credit and too much stress for the amount of money I was working and the position I worked.

Pros

Friendly Staff, easy money, and new clothes all of the time! Various weekends with higher discounts and staff really does get 1st pick of merchandise.

Cons

Grumpy upper management, made minimum wage (lowest salary I have ever made in my 4 years of retail), slow growth within company. No one inspired to work hard because no incentive and poor work environment
