Pros

-Bar -Co-workers -Clients -Rooftop -"Unlimited Vacation" - Only if you are exceeding your goals otherwise do not request -Nordstrom Discount -Get to dress casually and on-trend -If you come out on top you really do have career growth opportunities, but they will push you out fast if they decide they don't want you in leadership role

Cons

-Fear-based leadership from CEO -Sales Directors act like sorority girls, gossiping where teammates can hear them bash others -High stress and high sales goals - it can be done but the burnout rate is crazy here -Getting forced to style women even if you're a male or female who is not interested - takes more time and lower sales -Never allowed to go off the clock for more than a day, demanding clients and leaders want you to always be on your email and app. even during holidays

Pros

Good commission (for my department it was 10%), great coworkers—made amazing friends from my time here!! Opportunity for lots of commission $ during busy times.

Cons

Management is awful.. Plays favorites to an INSANE degree. For whatever reason I got onto the bad side of my department manager. Literally would call me into the office (taking away time on the floor to sell) to YELL at me until I cried for things that my coworkers got away with and didn’t even get so much as a talking to. Btw, what got me this treatment? Would be something pretty awful right? Coming in 5 min late. Big whoop. Also, management would promote people who quite literally had to take leaves of absence after having sexual harassment claims made against them… but then not only were they allowed to come back BUT also become floor managers. And what happened when he made it to that position? Literally got a sexual harassment claim again. I wonder how that could have been mitigated? The favoritism is so severe and unprofessional that when I was asking to get my job back for the holiday season I was told that there was nothing in the schedule available for me when in fact they were short staffed. And my coworker? The manager literally responded with “yes PLEASE 😍” yes. With the emoji. Grown man btw! Also, during that period the store was very shortstaffed with people quitting left and right. So, a lie.
