Pros

Great team, fun place to work, get to be part of the corporate concept team, lots of growth opportunities.

Cons

It's great if you're a sales associate but once you show initiative and get more responsibilities, they do not compensate and begin to take advantage of you. I put my heart and soul into the section I managed (without a raise or title) and they took it away from me and put a complete newcomer into it simply because they could t wait 2 weeks for me to graduate and become full time. They did all of this without even speaking to me or telling me and then one day all of the sudden someone else was telling me what to do and I was told to step down after 2 years of managing this section all alone.

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.
