Pros

Trendy environment, great discount, overall good employees, I have an amazing store manager. I've learned a lot working for Windsor. Merchandising, delegating, professionalism. It is what you make it.

Cons

I do believe Sales associates are under paid. The company does expect you to be the cleaning lady, a visual merchandiser, a tech to fix everything that's broken, make your sales goals, make your day, have shipment put out, help every single customer, have the store spotless clean. ect for little pay . Managers have to do all of this and some. Windsor should hire a cleaning staff if they want the store spotless clean. I think sometimes the DM's and buyers forget what it was like to work at store level. I think there should be more sympathy. Also, I don't like how there isn't set time to Visual Merchandise. We can't get all trends done, help all the customers, and make our day. It's ridiculous. It's like well, which one do you want done right then? we should have time before the store opens to complete at least one or 2 sections if that. I think the company can be cheap sometimes. we no longer have the big booster bags..we have plain white bags. Our signage is computerized, not laminated or professionally done. Our temporary signs are horrible. Our dress code is really strict. We can't wear sandals with dresses anymore, can't reveal our shoulders..sucks the fun out of dressing up.

Pros

The company has a great culture and is led by a team of incredible executives. In the field, we are given the trust and freedom to run our districts like our own business. Leadership values my input and communication and expectations are clear. The the work-life balance is highly supported. Excellent bonus structure if your stores hit their targets. The company fosters growth from within and provides tools and training to help develop leadership skills. My peers and mentors create a collaborative and fun environment.

Cons

The stores are very fast paced so it can be challenging to retain employees. A car allowance would be beneficial for all the wear and tear we put on our personal vehicles with so much driving
