      I have been working at Bed Bath N' Table

      Pros

      - Not fast-paced at all, relatively slow compared to a fast-food restaurant for example. - Perfect side job for uni students, pay is great. Also get bonuses if monthly sales were good. - Coworkers and Manager are super nice

      Cons

      - You have to remember a lot of new products and all of their names (but this is expected in any retail store of course) - If you don't have many sales, upper management may have a stern talk with - Not much to do during the day and can get quite boring - If you are after a lot of shifts, that may not be possible unless you are the manager or co-manager, or if there aren't many other workers. Usually get around 1...

      Pros

      -flexible hours -consistent shifts -nice team -good products -overall nice customers

      Cons

      -some people they've hired (who haven't lasted long) make me question how well the hiring team vet their applicants, due to the newcomers' total lack of common sense, intelligence or people skills -sometimes illogical/non-sensical requests from head office regarding the management of the store

      I worked at Bed Bath N' Table part-time for less than a year

      Pros

      If you get lucky and work with a great group of girls, then thats it.

      Cons

      Back breaking conditions, literally hours of stock every working day that you are expected to open, organise, then clean up after. If you're after a nice clean retail role, look elsewhere. You leave here being grimy, sweaty and with no appreciation from upper management. The hours are terrible. Only expect to be rostered to do "lunch cover" or "dinner cover". Absolutely NO support from upper management, unhealthy...

      Advice to Management

      Something has to change. Ive been working at my location for 7 months and in that time 5 girls (including myself) have bailed.

      Pros

      Great team in store. Staff are honestly so lovely at Store level.

      Cons

      Back breaking conditions, most of the ergonomic requirements for a modern workplace are not met. Hours are terrible. No support from upper management, no modern computer systems. Everything, and I mean EVERYTHING is done in paper.

      Advice to Management

      Move into the modern age and look after staff better and you'll actually keep people around fo longer instead of just casuals.

      I worked at Bed Bath N' Table part-time for more than 3 years

      Pros

      - great team environment - got to learn how to make a bed

      Cons

      - competitive and unrealistic budgets lead to staff members unscrupulously fighting over sales - management communication is really bad: my boss was basically a bully. You either did everything her way or get out, no room for own individuality in styling and selling

      Advice to Management

      Back off, let your staff members do their job.
