Pros

There is so much opportunity to grow within the company. Upper management wether it be in a store level or above is committed to helping their employees grow within the company and reach their career goals. You have to work for it though! You have to show that you are hungry to learn and advance. Be open to receiving and giving feedback. The people are what make this job so amazing!

Cons

Like a lot of retail jobs the customers can sometime be the toughest part. But you just have to take it with a grain of salt!

Pros

Good time-off package. Holiday week off for office employees. Historically respected work-life balance and flexible working. Good employee discount and maternity leave.

Cons

C-suite pushing a mandatory 3 days in-office after 5+ years of boasting flexibility as a cornerstone of their employee benefits package. Lack of clear and thoughtful communication of this new policy was frustrating and disheartening as an employee. Leadership, starting with the CEO, is at an all-time low of the last 6 years of working in their corporate office. Horrifying to see how poorly initiatives are getting rolled out, likely getting pushed down from board of directors. Would anticipate a rough transition into the company if you choose to take a role replacing the dozens of employees possibly being forced to leave the company due to RTO.
