Pros

Fellow associates are very nice. Support team did what they could to help us out. My present store manager is very concerned about customer service and having everything we need for our job. The discount is great.

Cons

Computer scheduling is awful. No coverage in some areas sometimes all day. My STM was rude and uncaring towards his staff. There is no room for advancement because DM's always higher from outside the company (ie Macy's). Eight years ago we worked for a family run company and felt like we counted. Now were just a faceless number in another large company. If you are full time you only get scheduled for 30 hours per week. The only time you get more hours is if there is a visit or a holiday sale. Pay is awful, only slightly over minimum wage. The ladies fitting rooms need a dedicated associate to clean them and rehang cloths!!!

Pros

I loved my job. I’m met so many wonderful people. And the associates couldn’t have been better.

Cons

I hurt myself and had to have surgery, and I was on Worker’s Comp. with limited availability. Because hours were short in operations, they made up this crazy position and wanted me to be ”lead” of the markdown team. I knew that meant for the most part to do go backs. I told them I wasn’t allowed to be on my feet that long and so she said they couldn’t accommodate me and I had to leave. And then the manager had the nerve to call their workers comp and told them I wasn’t coming into work. The management at that time was horrible. But there was a time when I first started working there that to store manager, and the assistant manager were wonderful. We were all so sad they left, but it didn’t take this new manager that I was talking about any time at all to lose almost the entire store associates.
