Pros

The company encourages you to be original and so it doesn't matter if you have a clean look or if you're all tatted up. There's always good music playing and it's a fun environment! Living in California I've been lucky to get to work some major Vans events and so if you work hard you get to be part of some amazing things!

Cons

Hard to get a raise or to move up in management. You often get told you're going to get promoted and then nothing happens for months and months.

Pros

50% Discount, Rad music, SOME great people, mellow dress code. awesome brand.

Cons

For the back stock manager- under payed, lots of hard work, on a good day you'll get 20 boxes of shipment, on a bad day you can get up to 120 boxes. "at my store at least" I'm the only one who works on BC shipment, no one else, I work really hard to move shoe boxes to make space, then to have it all messed up the next day. No one else cares to help keep the shoes organized as well as the back room in general. No one ever cleans the bathroom, i end up doing it on my own time, cause i use, it id like a clean bathroom. Bi polar hours, one week i'll have 26 the next 11, hours, not enough time to get anything done especially in a 3 hour shift. no credit for sales, since stock manager doesn't count for that. when you have an open scheduled like me usually company take full advantage, vans doesn't. when someone cant make it to their shift they;'' call me 20 min before the sift starts and asks if i can cover it, of course i say yes... taking me 30 min to get to work leaving me with -10 minuets, why not have just used a reliable employee for that shift in the first place if you know that someone has a bad attendance as usual?
