Pretty Awful

Pros

•easy work •simple training •30% discount •most of my coworkers are pretty cool

Cons

•I'm 99.9% sure I am being retaliated against for asking for one day off every other week even though my SM has been VERY cool about it in the past. I work three days a week and after asking for one of those days off every other week, I have not only been bumped to two days but also 6-7 hours A WEEK. •this is not retail, it's sales. Metrics are everything and there is no incentive to actually keep them high other than an extra $2 if someone is approved for a credit card. •they won't give you overtime and there's no fulltime positions in my entire district *except* for management roles, not even ASMs get fulltime. •you will never hear praise, only "you can do better." •CCs are supposed to get a minimum of 20hours.

Dont do it

Pros

Employee discount 30%, easy work

Cons

Regular team members earn minimum wage with no incentives for speaking Spanish or taking additional courses like color consultant trainings or becoming a key holder, benefits are really awful, poor health insurance plans. Communication from corporate or district managers is horrendous and if you are too smart or competent, your DM will try to get you fired. The expectations are that of like a car salesman, with heavy expectations of metrics, and UPT but no incentives or recognition for doing so. Inventory levels are maintained at a store level. You get what you get and all determined based on sales. You could have customers stealing product with no replishment fod actual buying customers. Dont do it. Its not worth the job.
