Pros

It's a good national company. I worked there for 8 years and loved it. The peopld that I worked with were great. There was a lot of flexabilty in hours and what stores you could work at. The discounts at the sister stores were helpful for the holidays. They were always trying now ideas and products to keep people coming back.

Cons

It was sometimes hard to explain to customers why the item they liked was now gone. They shold have downsized products rather than just take them away. but I do understand their attemp to keep up with the times

Pros

good discount, great product, competetive salary, stores a generally located in a desireable place to work, great benefits and you can make some wonderful friends.

Cons

long hours, high turnover, too few payroll hours, working frequently by yourself for 4+ hours at a time, don't trust you enough to make a decision without your DM's input. If you are going to pay someone more than the average store manager salary, then let them make a decision. These are not idiots that are store managers but hard working and a lot of self-supporting people.

Pros

It is a great place to get get your start working in sales. They have a very nice sales infrastructure set up based on giving the best possible customer experience. This makes it easy to learn the fundamentals of selling and depending on senior management, they can cultivate your skills or just let them go.

Cons

Unfortunately, you're working for a big corporation (Limited Brands). The turnover for employees and lower-level management is huge.
