Pros

The people are nice and there is lots of ability to move with in the company

Cons

There is a severe lack of communication between corporate and the stores as well as the fact that they will not give appropriate hours for stores to be able to accomplish all their tasks. The lack of communication leads to immense confusion in the stores

Pros

The product and the people (employees). A brand with a lot of potential.

Cons

Unrealistic expectations, long work hours, the worst benefits I've ever had, (medical, sick days, vacation), endless drama, ugly work office, not up on technology as a company, blows through money, has had numerous rounds of lay-offs, store closings, and more. Performance reviews are designed to make you feel hopeless. One year they gave employees a $10 Starbucks card for Christmas and another they had bad Chinese food in a dumpy lunch room.

Pros

Only thing that made it bearable were my co-workers.

Cons

Claims to be a family run company with values, but the policies and standards are more in line with a giant corporation. Executive management and executive/corporate staff are so far removed from the store level that they have no idea how hypocritical, unreasonable, and biased senior management are towards everyone at the store level (including the store managers). Lying and broken promises was the norm.
