Pros

A company with a conscious & a great relationship between employees and managers. The company treats their employees very well.

Cons

The company expects the sales associates to do a lot of work, and sometimes it's very physically draining/demanding. And like most retail places, you will get shitty customers that don't respesct you as a person.

Pros

The discount is very generous at 25%. Things can be picked up very easily, like the ancient cash machines where the scanners sometimes don't work and you have to type things in manually ( like sale items which don't come up automatically).

Cons

The management never gives positive feedback but are so fast to criticise and be rude. They show very little respect to employees and don't even think about trying to get days off - even if it's your birthday or sister's wedding. They just won't give it to you unless you book it, like two months in advance. Everything is very robotic with no thinking or creativity needed. Things become very boring and repetitive.

Pros

-pays better than similar retail stores -flat corporate structure gives you access to people in charge -treats it's employees with respect, good benefits, and plenty of paid holidays -preference toward hiring internal when other positions open up, which gives you the opportunity move up more easily if you have the experience -the company is very socially conscious -it is retail, so you get a discount! 25% in the U.S. which is not as much as other retail stores, mainly because the prices are already low to begin with

Cons

-once again, it is retail, which means weekends will most likely be spent working -the company does not allow manager's schedules to work around schooling
