Pros

Great discount, work with customers on a personal basis, form friendships with your co-workers, opportunities for advancement, advancing wardrobe at fraction of the cost

Cons

Untrusting of employees, strict working schedules and hours, paid once a week, schedule only out a week before, spend all your pay on their clothes

Pros

There are a lot of talented, hardworking people at this company, which makes recent leadership decisions even more frustrating.

Cons

Communication around major organizational changes has been vague and inconsistent, leaving employees with significant uncertainty and little confidence in the direction of the business. Morale has declined considerably. Many employees feel that years of experience, performance, and institutional knowledge are being undervalued in favor of rigid policies and top-down decision making.
