Overworked with no incentives

Pros

Visual freedom was fun however cooperate was always changing their idea of how the store should look. Color blocked or trend blocked...

Cons

No work incentives except for manager. Was a keyholder and had to work 35+hour weeks and do tasks that were not in my job description and received no type of credit for it. Higher management doesn't care if you are overworked.

Fun environment, too big for corporate to handle

Pros

I worked at one store for 5 months and then transferred because I moved back home after college. It is truly like working in a boutique so it is really fun. You get close with your co workers and you get to help customers. I personally enjoy styling and this was a great way for me to connect with customers and help them out. It is an overall easy job. Good discount and good dress code. Get to wear three pieces of jewelry a day.

Cons

The company grew too fast for corporate to handle. My transfer took over a month to process and HR was very difficult with being on top of the situation. Also within my 7 months of working here I had only met one person from corporate who did not even introduce them self to me or make an effort to connect with me. They came into the store just to "check in" and our conversation laster 2 minutes of her telling me what I did well/ bad with. Also it is hard because only 6 people work in a boutique so it is hard to switch days off etc.
