Pros

Pay is decent as are the benefits. Most stores have numerous associates working under specific job titles for specific tasks ie: pricing and signing, swarm, replenishment etc. which allows most sales associates to focus on the customer.

Cons

Open door policy is a joke. The company Human Resources pay lip service to associate complaints and laying off over 2000 associates and managers so far this year while senior executives received multi million dollar bonuses make this a company to stay away from.
