Pros

I had an incredible manager who didn't follow the typical Fran policy. Made my best friends there Good pay for minimal work

Cons

I don't think I got the normal experience from reading other reviews. My manager was the most amazing person & my bestfriend. We did not do the promise it was counterproductive. It was annoying & customers did not appreciate how aggressive they want you to be. More available hours would have been nice.

Management is not trained very well

Sales boutique associate

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Major discounts on clothes that seemed to be sized for babies not real women.

Cons

Tried to reach out to HR at one point to report inappropriate behavior and prejudice towards customers of color that walked into the store coming from the store's management. Their HR team completely disregarded the issues and tried to turn it around on me. Ended the call with them in tears because they were so awful. Also the Managers seemed were very cliquey and would single people out. It seemed as if shaming people into respecting them was the only way they knew how to lead. All in all the people in charge were very immature and not motivating at all.

If you have a moral compass, this isn't for you

Business Outlook

Pros

Discount, co workers and freedom of merchandising. This wants to type 20 words, my pros ended because this company has declined.

Cons

Mean girls move ahead, management expects you to force yourself on the customer. Upper management basically dresses you down for missing a sales day.
