Pros

Made some amazing friends that i’m going to miss so dearly. The only reason I stayed so long was because of a few of the people i worked with.

Cons

So much to say. During the holiday season i would be working 50-60 hours a week, staying overnight to accomplish online orders and getting 2 hours off before my next ridiculously long shift. The management was okay with the exception of my store manager who went out of her way to make life miserable for people who she didn’t like. Management didn’t respect availability including allowing their employees to take sundays off for church even though it’s a christian company. I was also working over 40 hours a week as a part time associate who was basically being expected to manage and teach without the pay nor the training. also was reprimanded multiple times for messing up a close even though i wasnt properly trained in closing.

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.
