Pros

no pros come to mind

Cons

Company does not pay overtime. Does not pay holiday pay. Does not take care of it's associates. They promise bonuses that you don't get. No one is held accountable. Associates are disrespectful to customers and each other. They claim to promote within, but do not. Confusing merchandising direction from the company for both associates and customers. If you work for them, keep meticulous track of your hours or you will not get paid appropriately. (if at all) Extremely high turnover rate. I would give them less than one star if it was possible.
