Pros

The vendors are great. Gratis is sweet of u love products

Cons

So many!!! They over work and UNDER pay. Micromanaging is not even close to what actually happens in this company. It’s crazy. They want a play by play for EVERY SINGLE THING that happens. EVERYDAY!! The reporting process is antiquated. It’s all very redundant and every process has a pumped up level of importance. Except for when actual important things arise..... then you get crickets. Nobody knows who to contact regarding human resource issues. Nobody can tell you why hours were cut. Nobody can tell you why the bonuses aren’t included in checks. But they want a swift response when that knock off m61 and dusty Lune&Nastier isn’t flying off the shelves. It’s a joke. The real problem I have is that the company CLAIMS to be team driven. But that’s not the reality. We aren’t even compensated based on performance. Why even bother trying. No work life balance AT ALL. Having a life outside of BM is not an option.

Pros

Business hours and get to meet some great clients

Cons

Lack of recognition for hard workers. No pay increase. Some employees are getting paid 30+ an hour at most stores and complain about a couple of cents from pay increase where people like myself is getting paid $10 less with no pay increase. Full time employees will do the most work more than anyone else, including management. Management also receives the most recognition over the employees that do the most work. This company has been bought out by Macy’s so I don’t think they care to hear what employees have to say.
