Pros

They are a wonderful team and it's really easy and enjoyable to work with them. I learned from real good professionals and grew up with them for a while.

Cons

It was just a Spring-Summer campaign and we all knew it was going to end up soon, but we really got along and I have nothing to say against them.

Very high workload, you are forced to learn quickly.

Pros

Received 3 closing 8 hour shifts on my first week upon being hired, was not prepared for this as it was my first retail job, although I was able to learn quickly and get the hang of it. Many many hours if thats what you're looking for. Managers are very respectful and helpful when it comes to teaching you what to do (although I was not trained by them) and you are able to learn how to work very efficiently.

Cons

Very demanding and very high workload, if you work here be ready to be on your feet for hours working nonstop. In my opinion pay is insufficient to the work you are required to do. If you arent prepared for a very fast paced working environment and lots of it, you shouldn't apply here.

Great pay but..

Pros

Zara offered group commission - lets say if your section did well then you would get commission based on that. I'm not sure if they do that anymore. For a retail job, the pay was decent and full time workers working 8 hours got an hour break.

Cons

The discount was skimpy. The managers showed blatant favortism. No upward mobility in this company (unless favoritism was shown to you by a manager.) Closing could be very tedious especially during sale . You would either get a decent amount of hours or hours would be cut severely.
