Pros

Small, quaint little store and the clientele was usually middle school girls and their moms.

Cons

My manager made my short time at Francescas a very toxic experience. I was hired as a key holder, but I don't think I was ever properly trained on opening/closing the store much because I was always SO stressed out trying to figure out the proper procedures. The reason I quit on the spot after working for approximately 3 months is due to how my manager handled a very personal situation. My grandpa's health took a turn for the worst on a Sunday evening. I had texted her to let her her know about his condition in case I had to request off sometime during the week. She didn't text me back. That night, he passed away, and Monday morning, I texted her that I could not work my Saturday shift due to the funeral. She texted me, "5 days is very soon to be having a funeral. If I find out you're lying, you will be fired." NO SYMPATHY - just threatened to fire me! I've never encountered a manager who spoke to an employee like that. I quit on the spot and turned in my key that same day.

Pros

Employee discount and thats it

Cons

Toxic management Lean teams with no aspirations to grow. Mentality is to do more with less, even when teams are struggling with heavy workloads and passive aggressive, narcissistic and gaslighting mangers.
