Pros

The team is fun Discount

Cons

Micro management They make you show minimum of 3 jeans 3 shoes and have you keep adding items in the fitting rooms They make you shove clothes at customers Customers are greeted multiple times A very pushy sales environment fast paced no training. Their online sales are going to grow because customers aren't going to want to shop in store because of the pushy sales tatic.

Pros

-Good work-life balance. -Team-building is encouraged. -The experience can vary by location. -Buckle has the potential to have some of the best retail teams, depending on the store. -There are opportunities for growth and career advancement for employees who have supportive leadership.

Cons

Management's willingness to lead, communicate effectively, and support employees is what creates opportunities for growth, but that was not my experience at this location. I felt the work environment was negatively affected by inconsistent communication, a leadership style that felt overly controlling, and discussions about employees that appeared to undermine teamwork and trust. I believe a more respectful, supportive, and collaborative approach to leadership would create a healthier workplace culture and better support both employees and the overall success of the store.
