Pros

Good product to be around, easy to sell to people, relaxed environment, good discounts, awesome dress code.

Cons

They won't let you work over a certain amount of hours because then they'd have to offer benefits which I think is ridiculous. Also your sales for the day, your help with customers and overall job performance means nothing because there's no commission and this company makes a bit of money and I think they could afford to pay their employees more than $8.00 an hr honestly considering the amount of customer service goes into to selling people shoes and looking for extra sizes and the amount of inventory we deal with.

Pros

The environment is absolutely amazing with my coworkers and they are always supportive. Any issues that arise are met with a high level of humanity - on the base level of the people I work with, because I haven't really delt with corporate. It genuinely feels nice to work here when you have a team like mine. The culture of skating is absolutely amazing to learn about at VANs and be a part of as well. I like the history behind some of the shoes, but that's probably just because I'm a history nerd.

Cons

Part time doesn't get many hours or enough pay to survive off of. However, you can't become full time unless you get a higher position. Sadly, they are incredibly hard to get, due to the fact people seem to stay with VANs if they get that promotion, just because it seems to be great to work here once you have that higher position. As well as the usual shift is 4 hours, and sometimes you only get one shift a week. It's just incredibly hard to stay here when it can't even give you enough money on your paychecks to get a small amount of groceries that'll last one person two weeks.
