Pros

Beautiful dresses Being a part of people's special day Great coworkers

Cons

Company doesn't care about its employees. They keep cutting full-time employees who have been there a long time and have never done anything to deserve the cut. Upper management can be rude, demanding, and demeaning. They are always short-staffed because they have to make the "payroll" goals So everyone is always in a hurry And the customer doesn't get the service she deserves And then she complains about the company All because the upper management are trying to increase their profit margins. And there is a high turnover rate because of all of this, which makes it more stressful to be there because everyone is always new and they are always training, so there are more errors - and the bride (and David's Bridal) suffer in the end.

Fun place to work and nice to be apart of something bigger.

Total revolving door for employees, managers and everything else. No commission and store is worn down along with systems.
