Pros
There are many great things to working at Tilly's! This company hires some of the best people I have ever worked with. It has a fun and energetic environment, which makes my "work" not feel like "work"! The dress code is great! Being able to wear my day to day clothing and keeping up on current fashion trends is awesome! Tilly's has a great system set up for the way management is ran! Rotating twice a year which give every Co-Manager / Assistant Manager the ability to fully get developed in all aspects of the Store: Operations (store files, schedules, paperwork, etc.), Training and Development (new hires, action plans, employee files, reviews, etc.) and Visuals (floor sets, updates, transfers, markdowns, Window displays, etc).
Cons
Pay: the pay for employees Is minimum wadge with only around a 2% raise (which is nothing)! And in management only making $12.50 it's hard for me to even think about minimum wadge going up twice in 18 months. All sales employees will at $10 and I'm making only $2.50 more than them? I don't feel like this is fair to management. Something, out of respect for managers, should be discussed. We have a lot more responsibility than them and are working 40+ hours a week. Some members of management are young and befriend sales employees. Managers, need to keep manager confidentiality between other managers and not discuss this with non management employees. This results in those sales employees not respecting other members in management. Pushing sales is good to drive business but they push sales so much that it feels like that is all this company is out for. They don't care about the people who actually work for them, just the money they bring in. Favoritism is shown not only from manager-to-employee, but from manager-to-manager as well. Creating a divide in the management staff, which results in no longer having a "team".
