Pros

Stock options and a retirement savings program, and an associate discount program provide the two main reasons to work here.

Cons

For part timers, you will be working enough hours to call this a decent job IF you maintain full availability. If your availability is limited, your hours will also be limited, in some cases to the point where it is not worth it to keep your job.

Pros

Good full-time benefits, flexible scheduling. But the cons are starting to outweigh the good.

Cons

A new store manager took over the Massapequa Park location (Long Island, NY) and the workplace culture has become highly challenging since. Her management style is overly critical, and she makes harsh, rapid judgments without taking the time to know her associates or understand their roles. Furthermore, she does not lead by example, and she sets unrealistic expectations without providing regular check-ins or continuous coaching. This has left the staff feeling unsupported and neglected. There is also a strong perception that loyal employees hours are being unfairly cut or even terminated to reduce store costs rather than supporting the well-being and retention of the staff.
