Pros

Great Company, Benefits. The best part of the job was my co-workers. It allowed us to have a sense of community, like we were going to war together to conquer a common enemy.

Cons

This retail location had a very high volume of customers. The environment seamed very hectic and not controlled. Management seamed to be overwhelmed by customers and employees, thus deeming them unreliable.

Pros

We work with geniuses - in every department, We create innovative products that thrill our customers and create new product categories - who else can say that?

Cons

ZERO ZERO ZERO work/life balance. Execs have been saying for YEARS that they understand and will make it better. But in actuality, it gets worse every year! It is obviously top management LIP SERVICE because if they meant it, they could fix it tomorrow. They have hundreds of BILLIONS in the bank. If they REALLY cared about employee work/life balance, they could bring aboard the right number of folks to make that issue dissolve. Sick of hearing the lies. Just don't lie about wanting to fix it, when they clearly DON'T care
