Pros

I enjoyed my experience at Gap Kids/Baby. Co-workers were (mostly!) great to work with, I enjoyed outfitting families, and my favorite activity was merchandising and floor sets, which management generally tried to schedule me specifically for. Scheduling was also pretty flexible, and I could request not to be scheduled usually without difficulty.

Cons

I worked as an associate at Gap for over 5 years. While management knew I was in college and was not going to make a career out of sales, there weren't any positions for me to advance to. When I was leaving though, 'expert' positions were being introduced. Also, this is par for the course, as sales is very transitional business, it could be quite difficult working with seasonable help, who really didn't care about the job.

Pros

Good atmosphere, nice clothes, 50% discount on regular priced items. I work on the baby and kids side and i enjoy working with the kids and helping their parents. The managers are really helpful and whenever you need to ask something there's never a problem. The hours are good, if you work well. We get recognized for the things we do. There are competitions and if you win you get points to your gap account. with those points we have a store where you can buy pretty much anything from a camera to a washing machine.

Cons

The store sometimes bases your hours on how many gap cards you get. I don't like that because it really is luck of the draw on when you get them.

Pros

The benefits are really good and the potential growth within the company is unlimited. The over flexibility for time off when you need it for any reason.

Cons

Depending on what time of year you are trying to apply for the job you may have to compete for a full time position to reach the perks of working for this company.
