Pros

I have enjoyed the collaborative environment. Most employees are motivated, happy and a pleasure to work with on a daily basis.

Cons

Like any big company, there is a lot of bureaucracy and red tape. The company is slow to act on new ideas/technologies.

Pros

Involvement in community/charitable work. Able to grow (if you have a degree)

Cons

Work/Life balance sucks. It's retail, which is bad in itself, but combined with the "politics" makes it a poor place to work if you aren't constantly kissing someone's butt.

Pros

It is a fun and fast-paced environment. You meet a variety of people, and it is easy to make new friends. You also learn a great deal about customer service.

Cons

Like most jobs in retail for a large company, one of your responsibilities is to ask guests to open up credit cards. Sometimes it is stressful when you are unable to sign enough people up for these credit cards because the number of cards you open is part of your employee review. Also, like most jobs working with the public, some people are very nice and respectful, and others are... not so nice and respectful. Just remember not to take it personally if a guest becomes upset with you. If you are doing your best, there really isn't more that can be done. There are plenty of other guests that will appreciate your hard work.
