Pros

I loved working at the Converse Retail store and I been working there for about 6 years. The rest of employees are easy going and kind it was a very good environment to work at. When it comes to employees who are enrolled in school they help schedule you so you have time to go to school

Cons

Management are always on their cell phones and will spend time in their office chatting up and eating.

Pros

Able to learn all aspects of running the store, since it's a lower volume, smaller management team it's important to be trained on all areas. Flexible scheduling during weekdays-asking for a specific open or closing shift, or needing a specific weekday off Learn a lot of transferable skills that can help you find a job outside of a retail/sales environment.

Cons

Only getting one weekend off a month (if the manager wants to give that to you-often would try to only give you one Saturday and one Sunday on different weekends. Or would say they "forgot" to give you a weekend off, so you don't get one that month. Never getting a holiday off, only day the retail locations are closed is Christmas Day. The pay for managers is great, which makes it hard to want to leave retail.
