Pros

-clothes (but less and less unfortunately) -discount 15% before tax -uniforms so you don't have to dirty your clothes, nice!

Cons

-no benefits -the biggest problem at Zara is communication. The managers don't know how to communicate (store managers and head office), they need to be trained. They ask people to do things but they don't agree on how to do them. One wants it like this, the other one wants it like that, so you never know how to do it, who you can trust and well it is your fault! -Another one is fairness. There's no equity when it comes to treating/promoting people (and promotion is not really common at Zara), no matter how good you are at your job. You never know if you can trust your manager. I saw so many people ( sales associates and managers) who were not fair to other people than now I can say there's something wrong in this company. After working at Zara, I worked in another company, I can tell you the environment was way better!

Pros

There aren’t many pros, pretty chill coworkers I suppose

Cons

Managment is a mess, filled with people who really don’t know what they’re doing and they have empolyees who’s sole purpose is being on their phones and not working, the “GM” is a wreck and doesn’t know how to properly soeak to people as she believes she’s above everyone, and regional isn’t much better
