Pros

As a manager you are involved in product ordering and receive a clothing allowance.

Cons

Positive feedback is rarely given, its a very negative environment to work in. Rarely is enough payroll budgeted to stores so the staff always felt like they were being stretched very thin and customers were always angry that there weren't enough people to help them.

Pros

My coworkers and Managers felt like a family I felt supported and was able to make good connections At the time I was there my managers made it feel less daunting to ask questions or come to them if I had concerns about customers . I feel like if I stayed with Zara longer I would have been able to move within the company easily.

Cons

Air conditioning didn't work while I was there.
