Pros

I’ve been in retail management for 8 years and this is the Best company I’ve worked for! If you are visually minded this company allows you to express your creativity. They believe every store should look different in merchandising and you do not have to follow a planogram. I’ve read other negative reviews about work life balance and I believe that is based on the store environment. I work average (not including holiday season and floorset weeks) 41 hours and we are rebuilding our store. It’s about onboarding strong leadership. Altard State is a give back company which means 10% of Monday’s sales goes to a local nonprofit chosen by the store management team. Also, a portion of all sales goes to educate, feed and clothe children. There is A LOT of growth opportunity within the company.

Cons

Could get more compensation with another company but it’s worth to come for growth opportunities.

Pros

Literally nothing, can’t think of one positive thing

Cons

I’ve been with the company for years and watching its continuous downfall has become almost comical. Two years ago we took major pay cuts (like 15%) because of the economy but this year they sent us to the Virgin Islands on this over the top meeting that must have cost a fortune. I’d rather have the money in my bank versus a trip I was forced to go on with senior leadership that are absolute horrific people in general and evil businesses people. It all felt like a big propaganda event with tons of videoing and picture taking so they could come home and post all over linked in and social media about how WONDERFUL it is to work there. Don’t even get me started on the new Little House on the Prairie denim dresses we have to wear because they hire managers that aren’t even strong enough to coach to a dress code. How can you run a store if you can’t even tell someone what they’re wearing inappropriate? Instead now we look like a bunch of little followers of the cult everyone already says it is. As long as we say we “stand out for good” at every opportunity it must mean it’s true right? To know who else brainwashed people into thinking bad things are good for them? CULT LEADERS.
