Pros

40% Discount on products and gift cards, decent starting wage, health insurance for part-timers, interesting customers, cool vendors and brands, schedule flexibility

Cons

The company has changed a lot in a downward direction since going public, not much room for growth, raises are next to none, favoritism comes into play quite often, things vary tremendously from store to store, the warm feeling of the company has diminished

Pros

Decent pay for the most part

Cons

No raises, no bonuses, as an IC doing every other department is more important. Lots of forced overtime at the last minute.
