Pros

Gildan Retail is small enough that you get a lot of exposure to different areas. You can really learn a lot. Pay/benefits are pretty good.

Cons

You have a higher probability of being let go due to a reorganization than you do if ever moving up in the company. Outside the lowest levels there have been next to zero (could actually be zero) people advance up the ladder on the retail side. All open higher level jobs are filled from the outside. Not a place to build a career.
