Pros

Salary is market rate or above Depending on the division you work in, annual cash bonus can be solid Good employee discount

Cons

The norm is very poor management, all the way from the top down through upper, middle managers Morale is very low throughout company so the top talent cannot be retained Lots of politics and bureaucracy (it is retail afterall) where merit does not count much in most cases

Pros

Good culture Good benefits, work/life balance. Casual work environment (jeans to work everyday). Cafeteria on site. 50% clothing discount at BR and Gap was great.

Cons

No bonuses provided for assistants. Didn't feel appreciated especially since HR handed me the list of bonuses and how much each manager, director on the team would be receiving as their bonus. Let's say the amounts were not small!

Pros

Good health benefits, vacation time was plentiful and accused quickly, and employee discounts program.

Cons

Employees were giving direct reports as soon as they were promoted from an assistant level to the next. They were inexperienced managers with out proper guidance. It is very challenging to work under a manager that does not have any management skills and is using you as a chance to learn to manage people.
