Pros

Generally fun coworkers, great discount, free yoga and workout classes, the pay is decent for retail.

Cons

Absolutely NO work/life balance-they want your on personal facebook to be "on brand" and align with their culture. Constantly working nights and weekends...if you are in a relationship or have any kids/pets this is not the place for you! In general, the store manager has little to no experience or education. If you are a person with a higher level of education and any amount of street smarts or common sense, you probably won't get along with your manager and definitely will not get promoted. They also don't like people who like to work their bums off to get ahead...they want people who like to boss others around. The interview style is a total joke...they don't even do background checks, reference checks, or even look over your resume...

Pros

The benefits with the sweaty Pursuits is good and the insurance is good too! You get a team that you get to put together and get to know them and see what works for you guys to be successful in a processing shift!

Cons

The nights are long and very overworked. They ask a lot from you and usually they put the business before you. It’s always we need this and that from the managers but not actually taking time to help or to actually see that we are trying our best and if they actually worked a shift with us and saw the struggles they would understand more. They think it’s easy, when the weight of the store depends on us. You are also qualified as a Guest Experience lead since you have to do both trainings so the management do over utilise that and you will be doing two jobs. Even though it says in the description to support the floor but there’s a difference between supporting from time to time and doing it all the time where you are running the floor and the back at the same time but they’ll say “oh why isn’t this done?” Maybe because you’ve told me to help you out ? The are also very selective about who moves up to be a manager. No work life balance at all!
