Pros

I was able to gain lots of sales and customer service experience. I also liked that the company emphasized personal connections with customers - my store sent hand drawn birthday cards to customers who had the Maurices credit card. The employee discount was also the best I had heard of anywhere. I liked the constant feedback on personal sales goals, it motivated me and me more aware of what I was doing.

Cons

I wasn't all that comfortable with how aggressively they pushed selling the store credit card. I understand why they want customers to get the credit card and I was comfortable marketing it, but only up to a certain point. I found that it very often irritated customers who, after hearing about it 3 or 4 times, would no longer feel like I was truly trying to help them. I tend to agree with them because I feel the same way when I'm shopping. Also, at the end of the night, the two people who closed would drive over to the bank (in their separate cars) to make the daily deposit in the drop box. I always wondered about it because we were both required to go but were never paid for it. On top of that, I always thought it seemed like a huge liability if anything happened or there was a car accident.
