Pros

Positive, professional, enjoyable work environment. This is a give back brand highly involved in outreach which makes work that much more rewarding. The customers are pleasant and the atmosphere is incredible. Paid time off is very generous and you can also be paid for volunteer work in your local community. 30 day paid sabbatical after 5yrs in addition to earned paid time off. Opportunities to travel out of country to participate in mission/volunteer work. This is a faith based company that truly wants to just give back and stand out for good using the retail business as the platform. The company is growing and expanding into other avenues in retail so opportunities to grow with this brand feels exciting! Altar’d State highly values work life balance so managers are only working 40 hour work weeks regularly where other retailers expect more. The company culture is so positive and uplifting. It is truly inspiring to work for Altar’d State. Anyone considering coming to this company won’t be disappointed.

Cons

I have not found any cons in my time with Altar’d State.

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.
