Pros

When you work for Maurices, you know that your company truly cares about you. We have wonderful benefits and strive for internal promotions first. Our company sends us free goodies as incentives for achieving sales and other goals. We make many connections with customers on a daily basis and get to have one-on-one sales in a fast paced and high energy environment. Customer service is held as the highest priority.

Cons

A lot of the Store Managers run in a game of drama and politics. Depending on your area/market, your ability to advance will be based on who you know and whether you are a favorite in their eyes. There is little to no scheduling flexibility with any title. You will also spend a lot of money on updating your wardrobe every 2 weeks or so to stay current. Stores do not receive enough payroll to cover all company expectations. You will also be required to sell the store's credit card and maintain a certain ratio.

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

I work with a great group of girls that really care about the people they work with each day.

Cons

DL is very micro managing and no one does anything because she's been with the company for years. They play favorites in the district and say they want to support you in a project but they really want to control it and have you do it their way but they aren't there for the execution of it. They control when and how often you can use your PTO and believe that you have to eat sleep and breath maurices even in your days off. Its absolutely draining. There are some good DLs but there are some that are just narcissistic. And there is no way to provide the feedback of what you are dealing with because you are dismissed, told that she knows what she's talking about because of the years under her belt and then when the plan fails that wasn't your plan to begin with, you get blamed. Its unfair and I feel trapped.
