Pros

Free reign on the Visual Merchandising Good clothes for the price point Small staff (Can also be a bad thing)

Cons

First the pay is a complete joke, It would be a joke even if they didn't ask you to do the impossible. They have completely unrealistic expectations. As an ABM they would tell me to reset the ENTIRE floor by myself, make and hang signage for a promotion they just told you about, and then they would get on you for not helping enough customers! I would regularly have to work 12 hour shifts just to try to keep up with it all and you get nothing for hard work. They have no idea how to train or develop employees. My Area manager kept telling me all these things I was doing wrong and when I would ask how I could do better she had no idea what to say. There is no way to grow with this company past BMR, but with the direction the company is going I don't know why you'd want to.

Pros

I loved the flexibility of my boss scheduling me according to free time with my college work.

Cons

I felt like it was a very serious job and sometime my boss would make me go up to guests and keep askign them questions right when they walk in the door.
