Pros

Being a college student, I can't say I would rather work anywhere else. Retail can be labeled "boring", but it's only a part-time job, and the pay is above average. The people I work with are great, with a good mix of college graduates, current college students, and some mid 40's women working at my current location. Willing to work with schedules; very flexible. Shifts range from 4 to 6 hours for associates usually.

Cons

No real cons, considering its a well paying part-time job.

Pros

There are a lot of talented, hardworking people at this company, which makes recent leadership decisions even more frustrating.

Cons

Communication around major organizational changes has been vague and inconsistent, leaving employees with significant uncertainty and little confidence in the direction of the business. Morale has declined considerably. Many employees feel that years of experience, performance, and institutional knowledge are being undervalued in favor of rigid policies and top-down decision making.
