Pros

Great hours, really cute clothes, very small staff so you get to do everything (visuals, customer service, sales tracking)

Cons

High turnover (constantly training new people), corporate is always changing policies, I did more work for no more pay

Pros

Some truly unique/quality garments, many cute/affordable gifts, lots of freedom towards visuals, close staff, frequent and exact sales #'s are easily attainable and made clear to entire staff, get to wear the jewelry every shift, exposure to a variety of merchandising vocabulary/skills

Cons

Simply put...the company currently lacks; direction, strong brand identity, training, decent employee discounts, leadership, up to date POS registers, efficient quality appliances (needed for store upkeep), apparent objective, space for shipment/to even simply sit during break, work/personal life balance, reasonable compensation, accountability, and constructive communication on behalf of upper management

Pros

Freedom in merchandising store, nice employee discount, more control over store than other retail companies, you gain a lot of management experience in different capacities

Cons

Long hours, under staffed, absurd sales goals, salary and bonuses are a joke, corporate expects managers to run their store and still be a able to help out everywhere else.
