Altar'd State reviews

Terrible pay, I know it's retail and typically pay isn't great but there's really not any real chance of getting a raise of any sort. I absolutely hated that I felt like I was being forced to hound the customers, I would be asked to pester obviously annoyed customers and it made me uncomfortable and the customer uncomfortable as well. And I just don't like how I was encouraged to make sure the customer gets the most expensive things possible. It seemed to be like managers really put getting a profit before customer satisfaction. I also don't really know about the quality of the clothes for the prices.. I had bought a dress that was around $70 and then a few months later found the exact same dress with the same brand and everything at TJ MAXX of all places for $15. I would look online at the brands you're considering buying at Altar'd.. I could almost guarantee you can find them for a great deal cheaper.

There is a huge lack of consistency in the company. This is to be expected since its evolving but they really need to work on some large components that are necessary for running stores. An example would be shipments: You don't know how many boxes you are getting until just a few days before. Sometimes we never knew and that caused chaos.Floor set directives are sent days before the set and way after a schedule is made. Communication is lacking in a lot of areas. Expectations are extremely high with visuals and store experience but the payroll hours were not supportive of these demands. For the workload and expectations, the pay is not where it should be. This causes the company to burn through a lot of great people.
