Pros

Discount, co-workers, PTO and health benefits

Cons

The company does not really value their employees. VS is tanking and will cut store level employees pay and give the store minimal payroll hours to save any money they can. The way we are running our business is basically 1 or 2 coverage on the floor at all times. Customers get neglected, shoplifters run wild and employees are stressed out. Work/life balance sucks and you are completely drained at the end of your day. The pressure from upper management is insane. Their priorities are on the wrong things. Working at VS is not the end all be all and it’s best to get out while you can!!!

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.
