Pros

Friendly environment to work in with great fellow colleagues with similar mentality. Decent pay rate for casuals in retail.Working with fashion means first dibbs on pieces which come through the store

Cons

At times, not as busy and hence this means they have unfortunately cut down on casual shifts, meaning they may have oncerstaffed in the first place as the interview procedure was not as difficult as I expected.

Pros

Good pay great company to work for, as corporate Zara hires within the company. You leave no later than 10:30 if you close! And you get a commission bonus every check which makes it as if you never paid taxes because your check looks exactly like your hourly rate

Cons

Always an obstacle somewhere, like any job. NOT FOR LAZY PEOPLE. Always a full stockroom. Always someone new to teach.

Pros

- Tests your limits (physically, mentally/stress) - Improves time management and organizational skills - Good benefits - Team building - Great staff - Build long term relationships - Fast-paced - Gives you critical skills to not only work for any retailer but also prepares you for other job opportunities outside of the fashion industry - If you work hard, you will be recognized and are able to move up in the company quite quickly

Cons

- Long hours on the floor - Can be extremely stressful - Physically/mentally draining at times - As in any retail environment, must deal with irate customers - Terrible discount - Long hours/black-out periods during holidays make it difficult to maintain work-like balance
