Pros

This is an exciting and dynamic place to work, and some of the best people in the industry. Experience here is a valuable learning experience.

Cons

Forever 21 is lacking in work/life balance, with little regard for personal or family life. The executives are very arrogant, insisting that new hired management take pay cuts for the "privilege" of working there . Executives micro-manage and are never satisfied, and are quick to criticize and slow to praise. They trust and value tenure rather than expertise. VERY slow to make decisions because everyone is afraid.
