Pros

It is very fun working with the clothes and learning about merchandising.

Cons

They do not care about their employees, they only care about making their sales goals for the day/week. If the goals are not made, the sales associates are verbally abused. My store manager, in particular, was very lazy and rude. On many different occasions she insulted and cussed out the sales associates. They work their employees to the bone and when you asked to take a 10 minute break, they come up with reasons why they won't let you. Sales Associates get scheduled to do floorsets, which is overnights and are paid minimum wage (12+ hours with one 30 minute break, if you ask for more you are told no) I worked in the fitting room and for 2 months worked without any sort of air conditioning. When Sales Associates told the store manager all she told us was to stop complaining. Managers obviously choose favorites, watch out.

Pros

Good company to start with if you want to go in to visual work. I was hired with no visual merchandising experience and was promoted very fast.

Cons

Pay is lower then other companies and at times you take on other roles, such as duties sales associates should be doing. Company is Un-ethical in some of the buisness practices such as clocking out at 12am and clocking back in during overnight floorsets.
