Pros
Good pay for a starting seasonal position ($9.50 per hour) Company offers great insurance for employees working 25 hours or more per week Occasional increase in employee discount at full-retail stores Women's factory stores generally have plenty of hours to offer associates Working in a lovely store full of beautiful handbags can be fun Great friendships with coworkers forged in the crucible of abusive customer interactions
Cons
The customers are truly the most entitled, obnoxious, and psychotic people in the world The holidays are a nightmare Management is disorganized and doesn't communicate Attempting to organize an accessories cart after closing on a Saturday will make you cry Discount is only 65% off MSRP at factory stores (customer price is often better)
