Pros

They donate money to local nonprofit organizations once a week. Volunteer hours are counted as time on the job.

Cons

Absolutely NO WORK/LIFE Balance!! Please believe every review listed here. It's amazing how a company that was supposedly created with God in mind is 10x worse than secular clothing companies. This company is 100% sales driven....No consideration for it's employees or the families they support...And the turnover rate for Managers is the highest I've ever seen in my years of retail ( 12 years). It's extremely unorganized with zero structure. By far the worst company I've ever been involved with.

Thank you for your recent review! We appreciate your concerns and take them seriously. Having worked at Altar'd State, you are aware of the Company's efforts to donate thousands of hours to local communities and the on-going construction of five elementary schools in impoverished communities. Donating 1% of sales and 10% proceeds on Mission Mondays to local organizations reflects our commitment to people and not simply sales. We can only accomplish these "give back" efforts by delivering an exceptional guest experience by our 1,200 associates. Having 2 DMs per District is unprecedented in retail and our commitment to both our associate and guests. We appreciate your review and wish you much success in the future. Have a great day!!

Pros

Literally nothing, can’t think of one positive thing

Cons

I’ve been with the company for years and watching its continuous downfall has become almost comical. Two years ago we took major pay cuts (like 15%) because of the economy but this year they sent us to the Virgin Islands on this over the top meeting that must have cost a fortune. I’d rather have the money in my bank versus a trip I was forced to go on with senior leadership that are absolute horrific people in general and evil businesses people. It all felt like a big propaganda event with tons of videoing and picture taking so they could come home and post all over linked in and social media about how WONDERFUL it is to work there. Don’t even get me started on the new Little House on the Prairie denim dresses we have to wear because they hire managers that aren’t even strong enough to coach to a dress code. How can you run a store if you can’t even tell someone what they’re wearing inappropriate? Instead now we look like a bunch of little followers of the cult everyone already says it is. As long as we say we “stand out for good” at every opportunity it must mean it’s true right? To know who else brainwashed people into thinking bad things are good for them? CULT LEADERS.
