Pros

-High Standards in the store and how we greet customers and one another. -Co-workers are always willing to help and understand where you are coming from and offers advice. -Gives clear instruction in how to be promoted -Organize business plan for the store. Sometimes excessive, and repetitive but appreciate the effort.

Cons

-Management is number one flaw -Hours are horrendous, no work life balance. Stay past ridiculous hours -Appreciation of sale staff is non-existent -For the CEO to fly all the way from Tokyo, Japan and inspect the store and not speak with the staff in the daily team build information session, even for 5 min and giving thanks was a slap to the face. -Bottom line is numbers and they keep track constantly. -Part time isn't really part time, its hours given are close enough to full time but not full time that benefits don't need to be given.

Pros

Full time schedule Did not have to work weekends Made some friends Health insurance is VERY good

Cons

Long, exhausting hours Work cult - they want you to eat, sleep and breathe this company even if you’re only part time Physically demanding work (one coworker has been on leave for over a month for a back injury) Always hurting physically in some kind of way after this job Practically no work life balance - always too tired after work Customers are always put before employees Every employee is expected to have a “business” mindset and be proactive in generating sales as if they were a manager - but without the manager pay You can work your hardest, show interest in wanting to lead and management will hold you back for the tiniest infractions Have gotten incredibly upset at work to the point of tears sometimes because of the ridiculous workloads and expectations from management Anyone in this company, from sales floor associate to manager, is disposable and replaceable - there is no hesitation from leadership to let people go who are no longer benefiting them in the way they want
