Pros

The work is fun and there sales training works. It is a company with high expectations and personal accountability but with recognition and encouragement such as with contests or bonuses. If you show leadership ability and willingness to learn you can move up. Pay is not great for an associate but as you move up it is very fair. They pay quite well for those with proven experience and those who are not afraid to show inititive. The discount is good 30% for associates and 40% for upper management or the current sale, whichever is greater.

Cons

Low salary for starting associates. Reviews are only done once a year. If you start less than ninty days before the review you are bumped to the next review in January.

Pros

Managers are fun and energetic. Lots of interaction with the public. Employees get a discount on products and you stay busy for the most part.

Cons

The hours are irregular- schedule can vary weekly. Lots of time on the sales floor adds up- can be physically tiring.
