Pros

Try to make work fun by giving pizza parties, jean days, etc. PTO is nice.

Cons

I work about 70 hours a week and only get paid for 40. Not because I'm salary but because they simply don't give us enough time to do sets, coach our associates and train, take care of customer issues, fitting rooms, and recovery of the store so I go in on my day off and often work open to close while never punching in. When I approached the concerns, they said that they were letting go of a supervisor and gave me 3 departments instead. The employee discount was nice until they made the rule of unless you have a JCP card, you get a lower discount. Ridiculous if you ask me.
