Pros

Great pay for a retail job, good discount (25%) Never boring! Get to wear trendy and casual clothes Coworkers are mostly friendly

Cons

No accountability for store managers - I haven't seen the regional visit the store in ages. No communication between the store manager and sales advisors - "Learning by doing" is code for they won't train you, and when you do something incorrectly, you get yelled at. When there is "communication," it is usually very contradictory and unclear.

Pros

Benefits even for part-timers is a huge win! Sick leave, vacation, and community days. Nice management and really friendly coworkers. Decent employee discount. Diverse and welcoming environment.

Cons

Very stressful work environment considering the low pay. Poorly managed and operated. They clearly try to run lean and do as much work with as few people as possible. Very unprofessional overall and a lot of greenwashing.
