Pros

fun atmosphere, lots of like-minded people, impressive employee discount program, flexible if given enough notice, many young and young-at-heart employees

Cons

managers were sometimes overly bossy and not explicit enough in task assignments, difficult to get shifts covered, black monday shopping is absolutely crazy

Pros

The only positive experience in my 2 year employment at gap was the opportunity to connect with others outside the company who are involved in the retail industry.

Cons

-some people do NOT want a gap card. this company will determine your worth by how many gap cards you can sell to customers each day -managers cannot make up their minds as to what takes priority on any given day -working for gap is a popularity contest -positive feedback is scarce -worst retail job i have EVER had.

Pros

Better than most places as far as wages, benefits aren't too bad, you're pretty much guaranteed you won't work the graveyard shift.

Cons

Metrics for employee performance aren't entirely fair, a LOT of kissing up to customers involved, being friends/just being "cool" with certain people plays too much of a part as far as promotions and advancement are concerned, not flexible with working around college kids' schedules as they used to be, twice a year they spring a schedule on you and if you can't work it, then........too bad.
