Pros

Chances for growth, Fun at times. Really a good place to start if you want to spent the rest of your life in retail position.

Cons

Huge amount of space to cover if you clean there. Also you will change departments very frequently. Its easy to list all of the cons for a business. Its no sweatshop if you don't want it to be. Just make friends and be the best you can be.

Pros

Great career advancement opportunities. Rewards a commitment to success with unending growth potential for hard working individuals. No college degree necessary. Generous employee discount. Casual work attire. Good work schedules for retail environment. Unique merchandise, constantly changing and the freedom to present it as the manager sees fit. (No planograms)

Cons

Very limited labor percent to work load. Physically intense work day which effects morale. No training programs. Limits individuals abilities to stand out due to a huge focus on productivity. (Every second counts). Devalues the importance of sales and employees contributions at store level. Zero customer service focus or labor to support this most important aspect of the retail business.

Pros

The opportuntiy to buld and run a business. It was a lot of fun at times. It could be a very rewarding experience.

Cons

Don't you dare make a mistake. You will be destroyed by sr. management. I liken my experience at Garden Ridge to an abusive relationship. When it was good, it was very good...the best. When it was bad, it was hell.
