Pros

- employee discount is 50% off - can make friends - each store does charity work

Cons

- held to same standards as head merchandiser but not making the same pay - expected to stay after you clock out to finish work - unrealistic expectations from store manager & district manager (ie sales goals, how much can get done during a shift) - lots of drama. the managers would gossip about sales reps and it would spread like wildfire - store manager had obvious favorites and would bully other brand reps if she didn’t like them - when asked about pay raises, aaron said that they should be more worried about the children starving in africa - preach about “stand out for good” but managers will verbally abuse anybody below them

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.
