Pros

Great discount, fun work environment, great products.

Cons

Beyond low pay. Worked over 40 hours more weeks then I could count and got nothing for it. They tell you about the bonus program but they set the goals so high that you'll never make the bonus. Forced to work alone for hours, doing visuals and tasks alone. No sick days and hardly any PTO days. Raises are a joke, almost an insult.

Pros

If you like working crazy hours for almost no money this is the job for you. Its fun to learn the new styles and pick out outfits and jewelry for customers.They are all about meeting the daily/weekly/monthly goals and empower everyone to make more sales. The balance between school and work seemed impossible and the managers were very understanding about it. I would recommend working here if you are interested in fashion merchandising. All the girls were very friendly and I still keep in touch with them!

Cons

The manager "forgot" to file my paperwork when I applied and I did not get paid for TWO MONTHS. When I did get paid, that money would go towards all of the clothes I wanted from there. There is no room for personal growth unless someone is fired or you move locations. When it gets busy, everyone gets overwhelmed and catty. Getting paid $8 an hour is not worth it AT ALL. There were fraud scandals with some of the associate's checks and our manager got fired (not the first time this has happened). Their lack of organization and sketchy payroll systems lead me to quit this job.
