Pros

Some of my co-workers were very nice and we got along well for the most part. Mostly we bonded over the fact that we were all miserable at this place.

Cons

Where to begin? The training process was a joke...I was handed an outdated training manual without any actually applicable information and then I tossed right into the chaos. I was a Bridal Consultant and was assigned to brides long before I had any grasp on the job, and basically had to spew BS at these poor people to seem like I knew what I was doing. I wasn't trained on how the seasonal sales or the computer system worked and therefore often wasn't able to tell a girl how much her dress would actually cost her or if we could get it in by her wedding day. On top of all that, I was lied to about the commission system. I was told I would make a certain percentage off every dress I sold, which sounded great! It wasn't until I was two weeks in that a co-worker explained to me that I wouldn't start making commission until AFTER I sold a certain amount of dresses - and this threshold resets every "period." I short, I sold thousands of dollars worth of garbage and never once made commission. This is my nightmare experience to which I compare every other job I've had - nothing comes close to being as bad as this.

Pros

Fun place to work and nice to be apart of something bigger.

Cons

Total revolving door for employees, managers and everything else. No commission and store is worn down along with systems.
