Pros

Nicest managers, everyone is so friendly, CEO and President are great and walk by quite a bit and say hi. They have food in the break room quite a bit, and it's easy to catch on. They are quite charitable, and it makes the work you do feel like it's going towards something good.

Cons

There pay could be a little better, but the company is growing and I am sure the pay will increase as they continue to grow.

Pros

I loved all my coworkers! They were all super nice and made work easier and time fly faster:)

Cons

At first to meet sales goals, the manager would keep our store open 1-1.5 hrs past closing just to try to get those last sales to make day. Cleaning and straightening during closing is tedious. Dresses are packed full into a rack where it's almost impossible to shop comfortably. For markdowns, there wasn't technology to make this easier. Employees would have to bring each item to the cash wrap to scan and see if it's on sale and then hand write the new prices on each tag. What was the best thing about this company was it's motto and it's basis on faith, which included closed Sundays. Now they made a business decision to stay open all weekend. They expect us to provide world class customer service to each individual shopper, while managing an organized backroom- they're good ideas! But not possible in practice. Especially on a weekend where people pour in and all of us are busy retrieving shoes from the backroom and using the hook to find the right size of that pretty dress way up high.
