Pros

Company discount is generous, you get to learn a lot about the business and about the workings of a fashion brand overall.

Cons

Store management treats its employees awfully, fraternization and mingling amongst employees while working is horrendously frowned upon, achievements are hardly celebrate yet shortcomings and failures are emphasized and broadcasted. Management constantly treated us like robots, discouraged making friends with co-workers, making small talk while performing tasks (to make a slow day go by faster). Upper management and HR sides with store managers on any real issues. Overall a toxic work environment. My advice: gauge your store culture quickly, if it sounds like what I'm saying - get out!

Pros

Zero honestly. Everyone in this building has Stockholm syndrome if they can think of any. Maybe the 2 days a week working from home.

Cons

Management refused to manage downward AT ALL. I’ve never seen a corporate company in such disarray and disorganization. None of management are fashion people or involved in the industry and almost none of the work ever leaves your desk. Bonuses are constantly cut as revenue falls while work increases. Toxic culture and people with attitudes are rewarded.
