Pros

Great discount, incredible coworkers, kind and helpful upper management, GIVE BACK COMPANY, gorgeous clothing/gift/etc, growth potential for TALENT, passionate leadership team. I've had ups and downs with this company, and seen associates/coworkers go through it as well. But at the end of the day, this is a job, a career, it won't be a walk in the park. I've enjoyed every day spent at my store, even when it's been a rough day. Embrace the growing process of the company, each employee (upper management and corporate included) retail is a tough business to excel in, especially in this day and age. Props to Altar'd State for bringing Jesus into the retail world! I adore this company with all my heart, excited to see what amazing things God has in store for it!!

Cons

Let me start by saying THIS IS RETAIL. Visuals take 8 hours, floor sets last through the night, customers can be rude, managerment can have issues. But again, retail people. With a growing company, you need to understand there are new things to learn at every corner. To flourish in this company you must be passionate and love what we stand for, be hard working and DEDICATED to furthing the success of this company. If you don't have the ability to tap into those major points, you don't need to join the Altar'd State team.

Thank you so much for your recent post.

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.
