Pros

Discount Nice clothing : ) Good corporate ( free candy on holidays)

Cons

Have to buddy up with managers to get promotions Favoritism All the mangers walk all over you they nit pick on your attire and physic (chipped nails, wet hair) Managers and other associates steal your sales Have to give your sales away via "rotating sales" on the weekends (the most volume days) Won't work with school or family life Cuts your hours if your not "preforming" the way you want to Will cut hours due to stats but complain about how your not making stats (YOU HAVE NO HOURS TO MAKE THEM! ) Expects you to wear Maurices like clothing but will say something if managers don't think its very MauriceS Ran by teenagers (my one manager was 17) Never expect to get anything that is promised (compensation rates and such) Managers think they are better than you (and treat you that way when they work at a lady's clothing store!) Store managers hire new people and cut everyone elses hours (bad) to train them Holds meetings at 10:30 at night on weekdays when school is in session and expects you to be there Store managers make you complete worksheets Manager cant handle the store on her own POOR COMPENSATION RATES FOR ANYONE WHO ISN'T A MANAGER (sales associates and sales support) They "prefer" associates to have the charge card Must be a mindless teenager to work there

Pros

AMAZING team and encouraging, helpful supervisors. Helped me in every aspect of life, even outside work. Definitely made connections for life.

Cons

Retail hours: holidays, evenings, and weekends. Lower than average pay, and benefits are not the best.

Pros

Loved welcoming customers and helping them find their style

Cons

Worst job ever, racism at the most, only Hispanic that worked there and got sexually harassed by the manager every time she was there, she wouldn’t let me leave back room until I told her I was done with the job by also illegally firing me she also accused me of wearing no underwear in front of the whole store, my coworkers were nothing but jealous one of them would tell the manager if I came in wearing leggings so I would get in trouble bc for some odd reason everyone besides me was aloud to wear them, the manager also publicly humiliated me multiple times on my last day and laughed in my face once I was crying. also in the span of TWO MONTHS. I got ONE SHIFT that was 1 hour and 34 minutes. ps I have proof and corporate did nothing ab it, it even after I had stated that I had proof!
