Pros

Listen. They pay you really well as management especially if you’re an ASM or higher. But you’re salaried. I understand that once you’re salaried it’s expected you work more than 40 but they really want you to be there like 50 hours or more. You get free stuff too. Free outfit once a quarter if you work for PINK and free panty monthly.

Cons

The hours are horrible. If we’re scheduled to leave at 530 let us go at 530 not 645. If you’re schedule until 8 we shouldn’t have to stay until 930. It’s ridiculous. You’re only supposed to work 1 close and one mid a week. But the store manager can go against company policy and make you work 4 nights a week it’s torture and hell. No work life balance.

Pros

Have met some amazing coworkers. Brand itself is fun.

Cons

Sudden Return to Work mandate 3 days in NY or OH SIX years after COVID. Any current employees outside of those states are being let go if they don’t uproot their lives and relocate. Many employees in those states built their lives around what seemed to be a permanent remote flexibility arrangement (most companies went back in 23). When Hillary Super came on she even stated in one of her first Q&A’s on remote work that where people do their jobs wasn’t a big concern for her as long as we continued to drive the business forward. The business is doing the best it ever has in the last five years. Leadership reasoning for mandate is continuing to fall flat. Mandate came absolutely out of NOWHERE.
