Good but Toxic

Apparel clerk

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good benefits, throughout the year they have a ton of employee discounts, which helps with shopping for all seasons and holidays, the pay is good

Cons

Its a very toxic place to work. Managers are always unavailable, emotionally and physically, they play favorites, some coworkers are literally impossible to be around, managers don't listen, and higher ups espeically are a pain. Getting into trouble or suspended is a given no matter how good you seem to be. Tons of bullying and hate amongst everyone. Its nice for a while until you realize you're working with older high shooler's. No one left high school. the drama is impossible to ignore.
