Pros

Absolutely none, zip, nada, zilch.

Cons

How long do you have? This company is an absolute NIGHTMARE. They are a cult. Upper management treats employees like garbage and I can promise you they do not care about their employees. They will fire you for scored secret shops which happen 2x a month or even for having “dirty” bathrooms. Management will come to work and degrade your appearance daily and beat you down verbally. This job is a waste of time and a burden on your mental well being. They pay extremely well but believe me when I say it is NOT worth it. At all. Especially considering when you are training, your trainers will tell you that you need to go to work every day thinking that it could be the day you get fired.

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.
