Pros

I like the variety of decor and the employee discount is nice.

Cons

The management is awful, You getting people to sign up for the credit card is literally the only thing they care about. If you have an emergency and call in, you better believe you’re getting in trouble on next shift. They watch camera and assume they know what and who your facial expressions are meant for. I’ve been working there for about 6 months and I’m the only one left that was there when I started, so many people have quit it’s ridiculous. They play favorites and if you’re not one you’ll be treated like trash. They’re very short staffed, yet they cut hours every other month. When you’re hired they’ll tell you, you won’t be doing the same thing every shift and you’ll NEVER be stuck at register all day but that’s a complete lie. 90% of the time they’re only 3 workers in the store during closing time, 1 will do register all night while the other associate does go backs and cleans while the “manager” does whatever they want (meaning absolutely nothing). If they don’t like you they will make you do everything by yourself especially the things nobody wants to do (clean bathrooms, get carts, etc.) I would not recommend even my worst enemy to work here.

Pros

Great Customers and coworkers. The products we affordable and great quality and I loved doing the visual Merchandising changes for the wall decor and home organizations. We really had a great team we provided great customer service and the local real estate loved coming in for assistance

Cons

The miscommunication between the upper management and the store level management wavered. We went over 8 months without a Store Director. High labor demands and lack of support led to a high turnover rate and a toxic work environment. Pay isn't commensurate with responsibilities.
