Pros

- 40% discount as a manager and gratis merchandise frequently - Always multiple associates to help get things done -Tools are given to be successful -Live results daily to see where opportunities are in the moment. -Work/life balance is more important than companies I have worked for in the past, but it's retail. Expect to work nights, weekends, and holidays.

Cons

- Sometimes stressful/negative environment - Very tedious work with panty bars and other panty tables. They get VERY messy when they are on sale...guess who gets to put them back to standard :) -Not enough recognition/incentive for associates -No room for advancement

Pros

Have met some amazing coworkers. Brand itself is fun.

Cons

Sudden Return to Work mandate 3 days in NY or OH SIX years after COVID. Any current employees outside of those states are being let go if they don’t uproot their lives and relocate. Many employees in those states built their lives around what seemed to be a permanent remote flexibility arrangement (most companies went back in 23). When Hillary Super came on she even stated in one of her first Q&A’s on remote work that where people do their jobs wasn’t a big concern for her as long as we continued to drive the business forward. The business is doing the best it ever has in the last five years. Leadership reasoning for mandate is continuing to fall flat. Mandate came absolutely out of NOWHERE.
