Pros

Unless you are a getting married and getting a discount, there really is no pros.

Cons

At Davids I started out as junior stylist, a non-commissioned position. Starting out you made $9.55 an hour, so it wasn't terrible. This position was supposed to be one where you help the stylists, yet it turned into the stores slave doing tasks so the managers and other employees can sit around doing nothing. The position was seasonal, however right before they were supposed to cut people I asked my boss if she was keeping me and she said yes. A couple months went by and my manager came up to me and said they're getting rid of my position and that I was now going to be a stylist. Sounds good right? No! A stylist was commissioned and we just got into the slow season, not to mention they picked favorites(their old employees) to get the higher end brides leaving the newbies with the brides who weren't looking to buy. You had to make $200 an hour to make commission starting off, or else you just made minimum wage. Also they make you do harass customers by calling them nonstop to try and get them to come in, which just made them angry and go somewhere else. The store also did on-call shifts where you had to call an hour before to see if they need you(in case someone calls out) which completely got in the way of any plans you had for the day. AND they would change the on-calls without letting you know. My family all lives out of town and I requested off yet still was on call! They could care less for their employees and customers and only care about making money. There was 10 of us hired on, and only 3 stayed. Not to mention numerous other employees left. Do yourself a favor, don't work here.

Pros

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

Cons

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