Pros

Great place to work. It's nice that the company gives back to the community they are located in.

Cons

They require you to stay 2 hrs later after closing hours which, can make it a very long night and really hard when you have to open the next day. They need one set standard for their floor set instead of just guidelines when your DM can come back and say they don't like it.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful and kind review. As you know, its all about providing the best guest experience imaginable for our associates and guests. The two hour close, which is very consistent at high performing retailers, is meant to allow time to refresh and replenish the store for the next day. We believe that focusing on these tasks after the store closes allows us more time to focus on the guest and her needs when the store is actually open. Delivering a great guest experience can only occur through clean and beautifully merchandised stores with highly engaged and selfless associates. We are inviting people into our homes and we remain committed to making sure our home is ready to WOW our guests each and every day. We are always here to support you and please do not hesitate to contact me with any additional questions! Thanks again and have a great summer!

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.
