Pros

All employees are equal and have a voice. No matter if you are a part-time employee or a manager, everyone has their say. Also, when a position opens, all employees can apply for it, wether it be for a visual position, dept manager or a job at the corporate office. The employees are trained by other employees so both sides benefit from it. If you need some time off, just ask! Also, ANY employee can participate in new store openings, given them a chance to travel. If a part-time employee has a chance to participate in a new store opening and works with brand new employees at that store, he will be able to train this employee with what he already knows, adding training to his curriculum.

Cons

Hours can be cut if the store doesn't make budget, so all employees that are hourly don't have garanteed hours!

Pros

The fashion discount and not being stuck in a cubicle all day. The crazy busy with all types of personalites is fun. There iis a lot of chance to be creative. Young and fun.

Cons

A lot of cut-throat attitude and negitivity. The EXTREME lack of care for environment, yet carries a internal promotional document about how environmental they are. Boxes and Boxes of plastic bags, hangers and paper going to the dump. Is the stuff from sweatshops? Im not sure? I was told that there would be a lot of oppurtunity when I was hired, however there seems to be a lack of proper training, despite the time they devote to initial training.
