Pros

Best store leader summit! It was like learning mini vacation!

Cons

Higher management are very disrespectful during their visits! Nobody it’s on a same page with priorities! They want you to give the best customer service to their guest, but don’t provide you the tools to make it happen! It’s mainly 2 people coverage! One manager one associate. Sometimes you don’t have enough payroll to give a lunch break for employees that are working over 8hours. They get to eat real quick standing up Incase if you need them to come back to help. As manager Part of my responsibilities are recruiting, however with not enough payroll I’m encouraged by my manager to do it my my lunch breaks, or come to work before my shift starts to go recruiting. You just have to figure it out and they don’t care how, or at what cost to their employees. They think if there is a sign in every corner saying “ A Great Place To Work” makes the place a great work environment. One of the worst experiences of my entire career! I could keep going.....!! Just stay away from this company!

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.
