Pros

The discounts are great including clearance items. The majority of the people I work with are extremely friendly and helpful. It's a great place to work at if you're looking for customer service experience.

Cons

There's too much pressure put on employees especially in a larger store. There's also an extremely overwhelming workload for sales support and little to no recognition. Also the scheduling is very inconsistent and doesn't really work around your schedule.
