Pros

Pay and Bonus Rollover PTO Good Leadership Experience (to then move on from) Good Resume Builder Strong Internship Program

Cons

(Strictly for those in HR) - 50+ hours expected each week - you work every other weekend - you work all holidays - you work 10+ hour shifts and are expected to work mids (I.e,. 9-7, 10-8) - strong corporate political environment - you will be asked to run the truck in the back, pack online orders, unload freight onto shelves, hop on a register… etc. if you are looking for an actual HR professional role, this one is not for you. If you’re looking for a retail management role with a slight hint of HR, this would be perfect for you. (Especially if planning on moving up as a Store Director)

Pros

If you are looking for a job that you’ll be a part of a fun team environment, have the ability to learn all about customer “guest” service, retail operations and sales, as well as merchandising even at entry level great opportunity. for such a large corporation I have been pleasantly surprised by how tight knit teams are. applying was okay, there were multiple steps (videos, assessments) but overall not too bad)., phone call and then video questions before hiring.

Cons

Pay isn’t great, but for the market it’s fair. Moving up involves a much larger increase in responsibilities and workload relative to the pay increase.
