      Terrible Management

      Pros

      The people (coworkers) become your family. Employees get a 40% discount on all merch.

      Cons

      Terrible management. The turnover rate is INSANE, because no one stay there for too long. Upper management also expects you to do double the work for half the pay.

      Great people get great results only if you invest in your great people.

      Pros

      The environments this company builds are beautiful and well thought out. They really put thought into where and how they place their stores.

      Cons

      Absolutely no work life balance, they preach family and community but work their staff to death. This leads to poor management because the only people who can make it with the company are unkind bosses who abuse power, not leaders. The executives have very misguided understandings of retail management and execution and store managers abuse power. They make promises they can’t keep and do not pay their staff fairly, promising amounts they can’t give. I highly recommend staying away from this company and taking your desire to do good elsewhere.

      Thank you for your recent submission. We appreciate your feedback and will always utilize these reviews to better understand how we can improve both the guest and associate experience. As you know, our Store Managers work an average of 43 hrs per week outside of hectic holiday periods. In addition, we provide our stores with the hours needed to deliver an exceptional guest experience. This past year, we promoted 16 Assistant Store Managers to Store Leader positions which is a testament to our passionate and talented teams. We hope that during your time with the Company you were made aware of the many incentive and benefits programs including competitive pay, bonus potential for all associates, paid time off and volunteerism hours, "Give Back"trips" for associates to travel abroad, and both external and internal education programs to grow our associates. We also are excited to announce the recent launch of a Student Debt repayment program, aimed at reducing our associates' student loans, reduction of medical premium costs and paid 1 month Sabbatical programs to refresh and reward hard working . Thank you for allowing us to share these enhancements to the associate experience and we wish you much success in the future!

      Pros

      Fun meetings for managers Good discount Great smelling store Cute clothes

      Cons

      Be prepared to have no life. If micromanagement is what you like this is the job for you! A job where you are required to change your schedule almost daily! Managers are basically on call 24/7 and required to use your personal phone to run their store but no compensation is given. Required to work super late to do floorset ...which turn into days on end due to the ridiculous work loads. You can give your best at Altard State, but it's still not good enough! Corp level flying around the country going to extravagant places, while the employees work on minimum pay and payroll!
