Pros
- A very welcoming environment. You are embraced for who you truly are - quirks, tattoos, constant crop tops and all. - Special bonds are made - friendships that will last you forever! - You learn a lot about yourself. You grow in so many different ways. - The culture. The history. It's not just about a simple pair of shoes on a shelf.... there's a story behind EVERYTHING. - The discount.... duh.
Cons
- The hours...... man. Shifts tend to be 4 hours. As a sales associate, you can work as little as 3 hours outside of Christmas and Summer. You obviously have more seniority as part of management. - The room to grow is small. It can be a hard process and is also very competitive. I was luckily promoted within a year and worked in two different stores. - The salary isn't impressive. There isn't a huge margin between being part of management and being a regular sales associate. - Often enough, way too much is expected of you. Of course, this depends on your higher management. I was a little easier on the sales associates. - It was my dream job at first. I was so excited to be part of such a cool team for such a cool company. However, by the near of my three year anniversary, my dream was dead.
