Pros

Decent work enviroment. Salary is a average and responsibilities are low compared to other retailers.

Cons

Have to kiss butt to make it to the next level. They only promote who they like. Health benefits are actually below average.

Pros

if you can stay out of the drama, and just keep your head down and do your work they will leave you alone.

Cons

keeping your head down and doing your work will never get you past a sales associate spot. Raises are a joke.
