Pros

Adds some work experience to your resume. The people you work with are great (but they work in the same craphole as you). So this isn't a pro but I would caution: read other reviews about Von Maur before you think about accepting a job offer from them. There is always something else out there.

Cons

Starting pay is crap. No career path. You do a ton of work but the company doesn't care or recognize you. No bonuses or awards for a job well done. Pantyhose and skirts/dresses even in the winter. SO MANY RULES AND POLICIES--and most of them are no where in your employee manual. You just find out along the way when you don't do something right. You punch a timeclock and if you are even a second late, you get a talkin' to.

Pros

Employee discount- 20%. Can't find anything else positive!

Cons

1.Schedule is all over the place 2. Have to do truck twice a week with 0 help and just 1 person per dept. 3. Worst benefits EVER, pto given out every quarter which makes it hard to plan any time off.. you get like 20hrs every quarter... 4. Not allowed to take any unpaid time off.. 5. You get points for being late 1 minute, yes 1 minute and you get an tardee.. 6. Wannabe Micromanagers. 7. Managers hired straight out of collage with 0 work experiance who try to tell ppl with 20+ retail experiance how to do their jobs. 8. 0 communication and that is about anything.. if your co worker from your dept. Calls sick that day , you are not told but have to ask yourself when you see that they are not there.. 9. Dress code is a joke. Mr.VonMaur is stuck in the 80s.
