Pros

- The employee discount -- 30% Off

Cons

- Majority of the management do not speak English well, they are from Japan and are very strict about "six phrases" and you must ALWAYS be smiling (communicating is very difficult) - The supervisors are really young and somewhat ignorant, they aren't respectful at all - The hours! Management schedules you when you aren't able to work and lose your papers so you must always keep up with your availability and time off sheets - If you are a cashier, YOU HAVE THE WORST POSITION in the entire store - You are not able to switch positions ex. cashier to men's floor associate - LP are always moody and rude when you need to be checked out - They say it's EASY to grow with the company at orientation but it's very difficult, you must really kiss a-s to management and really, really work hard - They expect you to practice what you learn outside of work! Ridiculous - You CANNOT use your employee discount at other store locations

Pros

A lot of room for growth, they truly promote based on skill and ability. The product is amazing as well as the layout of the stores. Company is backed by the wealthiest man in Japan.

Cons

Expected to smile all the time, will get reprimand if smile is not "large" enough. Very strict atmosphere. Management will talk down to employees in a very patronizing manor.

Pros

If you want to work a full time job here it is. There is a opportunity to work 40+ hours if you can withstand it. The pay is ok

Cons

Working while construction is going on, dust flying in your face, Senior management is very very unorganized, schedules change daily as if you are working at a hospital, I understand that an open schedule is required but 12-13 hour shifts are too much to handle more than twice a week. Also management needs to give associates more direction or better yet management has to have a direction changing a table set 3 times in an 30 minute time frame is a sign of no organization.
