Pros

The employees are all very kind and respectful to one another as well as most supervisors being understanding and not abusive of their leadership roles. 50% discount is a plus, except on collab items (i.e, NikeSkims, North Face). The pay being $26 with a potential monthly bonus is a big reason why I stayed in the first place and dealt with a lot of the cons, but it gets to a point where money is not even worth it.

Cons

Upper management issues are the downfall of this company. Not correctly scheduling others (part time employees could spend weeks without any shifts)((full time employees hours have gotten cut close to 28 hours a week compared to other months where it would usually be an average of 35-38 hours a week)), mismanagement of employee payroll (literally employees not getting paid for their work and filing complaints to HR), mistreatment of employee's religious beliefs (the removal of a dedicated prayer area that turned into a changing area), invading employees' privacy by forcing them to use clear bags to enter and exit the store, allowing for security to go through employee lockers, the inability to lead (upper management not understanding the sales floor and not efficiently finding ways to fix these issues), while demanding so much for unrealistic sales targets. Late night shifts until 11pm and some times we would be stuck until 11:30pm-12am. Inconsiderate and disrespectful and would not even greet employees who had issues that need resolving. Supervisors want to leave, full time employees are already looking for new jobs. Overall environment is terrible hence why the negative reviews about customer service. It is not an issue regarding the employees not liking their job, but rather the way that management treats the employees unfairly following illegal business practices which in turn makes employees unhappy to work there in the first place.

Pros

Considerate Managers, Team focused mentality, 50% off discount (not stackable on sales, just off original price 15 minute paid breaks, team with good worth ethic

Cons

Takes at least 1.5 hours to close. Have the opportunity for a bonus $1-3 per hour worked if the store meets/ beats its sales goal set by corporate, however, corporate overestimates foot traffic to the store so a lot of time sales goals are reaches/ unattainable
