Tiring and Not Very Rewarding

Pros

The environment is cool, you get a preview of up-coming trends, and you can learn a lot about running a retail business.

Cons

Management is always unhappy and isn't competent, no one goes out of their way to help anyone (which is frustrating & reflects poorly upon everyone employed), the work is tedious, and associates are not paid very well.

Pros

Music , big store, fun associates

Cons

To many chiefs wanting to make decisions. Visual appearance more of a focus then customer service from Corp office associates. Pressured to term under performing managers without investing in them. Company fast growth but no plan to develop talent within. You have to work friday and Saturday as a SM unless you have a request off. I had only 3 weekends off in 1 year. Only 1 week of vacation and no one knows exact pto amount. Huge turnover rate due to DM's out of touch with current trends and economy and EE development. Everyone bows down to VP and president of the company that have little if any messages to the teams when they visit. You can't understand half of Corp office when they call or you call them. No praise only critize
