Pros

Great chance to be at the cutting edge of today's fashion, sell big ticket items, earn good commission, plus perks and benefits including associate coffee in the morning, luncheons, Ben & Jerry's ice cream and birthday cakes monthly, very nice and usually mature co-workers.

Cons

At times, a strong competitive commission driven environment. Associates ages may average much higher, but maturity levels can be that of high school students or worse at times (individually, not as a whole), management will ignore inter-associate interactions and issues at times, requires a career mindset and time to build up clientele and to advance within company.

Pros

* If you have an amazing team and management the day goes by fast. * Commission. * Easy to rely on foot traffic to meet goals. * If you ask for growth, they set thing ups that align with what you want, you just need to ask.

Cons

* If its slow, its SLOW. * There can be drama, it just depends on the department you're in.

Pros

good pay, good retired tech/fashion prop sales, hour long lunches

Cons

terrible work environment with whole bunch of eating disorder talk and projection at models (even from some management), management makes everyone stay until 4:30 even when all the minimum work requirement (and oftentimes more) is done, they will write you up for something extremely small then dismiss a big thing from another employee, terrible communication between managers therefore terrible communication to employees, employees get publicly ridiculed when they're just asking questions even amidst the terrible communication issues that are already there,
