Pros

Leadership at store level really cared. If you work hard it gets noticed and rewarded.

Cons

Pay is so low it's hard to make it worth it. No overtime really is a bummer. Managment pay is very low for a full time job. Advancement is slow

Pros

- Laid back work environment - Casual dress code - Fantastic corporate discount - Great place to start if seeking a career in the retail industry

Cons

This applies to Merchandising Operation. The major con is the lack of communication among Merch Ops employees. When working on projects/tasks/assignments, some of the employees weren't clear or didn't bother to ask for clarification. It often leads to unnecessary work afterward. If there' clear communication in the first place, the problems could have been avoided.
