Pros

Great employees to work with. Loved visual merchandising.

Cons

New "better" strategies that make more work for the employees. Reducing labor force so that employees had to do more with less people.

Pros

Flexible work schedule is great when raising a family and the benefits aren't too bad, but are declining.

Cons

Are on a quest to rid themselves of anyone who has been with the company any length of time. This is being done by frivolous job expectations and the ever changing best practices. Seem to only be hiring those in their 20's fresh out of college for management positions so career advancement for internals is non existant. While turnover used to be a focus area and kept to a minimum, the perception now is if they keep turning people over, no one will have a chance to be given any raises and while that will benefit their bottom line, it does nothing for guest service. Time off can be challenging to get as there is always some reason to not grant it, even though you may have the time on the books.

Pros

Pay is good. Most employees are like a second family. For the most part, I got the hours I asked for.

Cons

I was sometimes scheduled in positions that I had no desire to work in, such as cashier, even though I specifically stated that I did not want to work in these positions. My hours were cut during certain months. My employment was terminated because of a disliking from HR, for no apparent reason, and they dig in to find such small reasons to terminate my employment, even though the reasons they gave they could have fired every other employee with. Upper level management was horrible.
