Pros

Experience on your resume. However, even this is a con because most companies do not know what Forman Mills is and the systems they use do not translate to any corporate company

Cons

Almost everything. Pay was terrible, management was worse. You're lucky if you get a buyer who cares about you and your development- there are seldom at this company. Everybody is only looking out for themselves and will back stab to get there. You can't trust anybody. During the holidays you are forced to work in the dingy warehouse-like stores where they lay off store employees to use corporate as free labor. Mind you, these stores are strategically placed in the ghettos of inner cities. The owner lays off people left and right, no one is safe at this company. Save yourself a year of wasted energy(if you can survive that long) and DO NOT apply here.

Pros

Growth opportunities if you are an attractive, young, white female; that lacks any common sense or knowledge.

Cons

Fraternizing in the work place is accepted. Employees are worked like dogs!!!! Horrible pay. Store conditions are much like an abondoned crack house with everything from roaches, rats and the occasional heroin addict roaming the store.

Pros

Very convenient to my home in southern New Jersey. Reasonable salary and benefits.

Cons

Don't ever work here!!!. Horrible management, work environment. Sales executives are too loose with each other in a very unprofessional manner. They need babysitters when they travel. Embarrassment in the industry to be employed by Forman Mills. Owner RF is nuts!!!
