Pros

-You’ll get a lot of hours -30% discount

Cons

-you can only use the 30% discount on full priced items. Like if there is a sale going on you can’t use the discount on top of it. -Be prepared for folding panties... a lot. That sounds not so bad but after time it is painful. -I was a part time employee working full time hours with part time pay. -Most of the employees were very difficult to work with (Including most of the management) -There is sooooo much drama -although this is just a personal experience When I quit, one of the managers made me feel bad enough to cry and told me just not to bother working the rest of my shifts until my last day. - it sort of feels like factory work to be honest (repeating 1 singular thing over and over) -impossible to get a day off anytime between November and January -think of it as like a giant slumber party that never ends with girls you have a lot of drama with (tiring) -if you’re an introvert, run. Run far, far away!

Pros

Remote, work-life balance, easily post shifts and get vto if you want it

Cons

Hours fluctuate way too much, and repetitive, brainless type of calls. You're walked all over, and have to play stupid with customers because of their "assume good intent" policy, but WOW the amount of people who take advantage of this wild. You will see hundreds of dollars refunded on numerous back-to-back orders of the same person claiming they didn't get their package, or coupons and gift cards, nonstop, with customers always complaining. The complaints from customers still in store on their treatment from store managers and supervisors are shocking, I've had calls hearing those workers yellling at customers. The type of work and level of needing to play stupid is just not for me. I also didnt care for never getting a straight answer from managers, trainers, higher-ups. Everything is always beating around the bush. One time hours were cut back a lot, and they blamed the tariffs that the president imposed, which made no sense. Come to find out from a long-term employee that it was just the usual slow time. It's a weird work environment that you just can't take seriously. If you want remote work, take it for the experience on your resume, but move on.
