Pros

Overall a stable company considering the current trend of retail Good starting job out of college Good work/life balance Decent pay/benefits/vacation days Friendly people (depending which team you are on) Have had many direct managers that genuinely care and are helpful--not the case for everyone though

Cons

Catty environment-lots of gossip They put emphasis on who can "talk the talk" instead of who can "walk the walk"--it's all about who can bullsh*t the best, rather than who is actually driving sales/business. Too much focus on perception, rather than people who work hard, want their business to thrive, and want to be their own person. Trying to force your employees into a cookie cutter way will only make you lose in the long run

Pros

None. I was hired to be a person that restocks and cleans, they saw I was able to ring up and put me as a cashier.

Cons

Very little pay, terrible training, horrible management and some terrible customers. Disgusting location also, I went to a manager about toilet paper out in the women restroom, he told me it was a morning task. It was 7pm, the store closed at 11pm! Also CASHIERS ARE LYING YO CUSTOMERS TO GET THEM TO OPEN CREDIT CARDS! Shady stuff I heard as a cashier. Also during my interview no one showed up, when I called the manager made it seem like I was bugging her for my interview
