Pros

They’ll move you up quickly

Cons

They are so desperate for workers, specifically ASLs that they continue to throw out raises instead of listening to what needs to be changed. So many have spoken out about the awful (ptsd inducing) treatment that managers receive in these stores and yet nothing has been done about it.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are thrilled to offer our talented associates some of the best compensation in the industry, including starting hourly pay of $15 for part-time Brand Reps, $18 for part-time Guest Leads, $28 for full-time Assistant Store Leaders and $80,000 annually for our Altar'd State Store Leaders. As we've grown over the past several years, we've constantly invested in our people to help them thrive and to build a truly great place to work. In addition to the increased compensation listed above, this commitment has also led us to provide our associates with a Quarterly Bonus program, 14-Weeks of Paid Maternity Leave, $0 healthcare premiums for individual coverage, monthly paid time off to volunteer and 4-week paid sabbaticals for our full-time associates for every five years of working with us. Lastly, many of these programs have been provided as a direct response to feedback we've received from our associates. Through surveys, company-wide calls, and other methods, we ask for feedback regularly about what's working well and where we can improve. Thankfully, many of our associates have shared thoughtful insights with us that have helped shape the uniquely rewarding culture we have today - a culture that was recently recognized by Fortune Magazine as one of their 100 Best Companies to Work For. We sincerely appreciate your hard work while you were a part of our team and we wish you the best in your next endeavors.

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.
