Pros

This is not a target for sales people on the ground working there. They are nice people and they talk and treat people well.

Cons

I applied for a seasonal sales associate role at UNIQLO Mid City and was fully qualified—I had previous customer service experience, full work rights in Australia, no visa restrictions, and no upcoming travel plans. Despite meeting all the listed job requirements, I was rejected without explanation. When I went to the store for the interview, I noticed a complete lack of diversity—all employees were either White or East Asian, and I was the only brown South Asian candidate there. It felt like they had already decided who they wanted to hire based on appearance rather than qualifications. UNIQLO is a global brand, but this particular store seems to ignore diversity and inclusion in its hiring practices. If you are from a minority background, be prepared to feel out of place in their recruitment process. Would not recommend applying here unless you want to waste your time.

Pros

Great Benefits. Better than most companies. Pay is good for your role in the management realm. Sales Associates also receive better pay than other retail companies.

Cons

No Work/life balance Little to no promotional opportunities unless you're favored by management or your mother works there. (The staff notices) Promotions are based on passing an exam and then an interview of the US CEO. If they don't like your interview, you don't get promoted. Specialty team managers don't get pay increases unless your title changes which can take several years. They force you to take your PTO, but deny it when you submit it, claiming "business needs."
