Pros

-wonderful coworkers & manager -fun environment to work in -guests are generally very friendly and fun to help out -unboxing shipment is always fun. its like opening presents on christmas, only its not your stuff. -new floorsets (although very specific and highly regulated) are fun to do. -time goes by pretty quickly.

Cons

-corporate can't make up its mind which concepts it wants to focus on. -scheduling is always inconsistent; extremely long shifts for some, and ridiculously short shifts for others. -corporate adds a promotion, takes it away, brings it back, changes it, takes it away again, etc. -The Promise is extremely forced and annoying to both guests & employees. -Getting stuck with returns from other locations is infuriating. Get a better system already. -Daily plans are often ridiculously high (compared to LY) and unobtainable. -If we don't make plan, it's our fault. always. no matter what. If the store was under ten feet of water, corporate would tell us to go buy some life boats and diving gear. And to execute the Promise clearly through our scuba masks..

Flexibility, great community, growth opportunities, supportive executives

Cons

Nothing about the business. Liquidation and closure of the brand was one of the hardest things I've ever had to do.
