Pros

Very willing to work with you regarding your schedule. Hard to get fired - although they will most def just not schedule for any hours until you quit. The associate discount is nice and doubled several times a year making most merchandise very reasonable. Most associates are decent, hardworking people. A Team events and the contributions to charity are a nice thing.

Cons

It doesn't matter too much about ability or work ethic. You pretty much have to be handpicked to advance. A lot of politics - though they are not a professional outfit. The pay is lousy but the benefits are not bad. Credit - Credit - Credit!!! We are required to open a minimum number of charge accounts every week in addition to our regular workload.

Pros

Pay is very good once you start getting raises. Weekly pay

Cons

Genuinely everything else, the pay is that high because they have to pay you over 25 just to put up with the awful environment. terrible structure, terrible management, no accountability, cliquey mean girl environment. managers are allowed to sit around and do essentially nothing while supervisors carry 100% of the load and there is no checks and balances to ensure management does the right thing. Corporate and HR genuinely don't care if certain people sit on their butt While others keep the business running. Credit card pushing is absolutely Off the Wall insane. Getting enough credit cards is all the company cares about and managers do not help. Managers are allowed to have no history with getting any credit cards at all and corporate doesn't bat an eye. If you try to speak out about anything that's going on you'll just get fired. Retaliation is allowed and encouraged.
