Pros

Everyone is very friendly, meaning the co workers. The pay is great better than some other stores. The cafe where workers can relax on break is pretty cool as well as the clothes are great if you know what to buy and what material is good to have.

Cons

Management is not the greatest to be honest. They don't answer your email quickly or just forget about it for days. To get your hours changed requires at least 6 emails day to even get them to do something. A lot of the managers don't know what they are doing and yell at employees for little things.

Pros

You get lots of PTO up front as a part timer and can gain flex hours overtime. Get a 50 cent raise every six months.

Cons

Was told during onboarding that if a Christian comes into the store spreading the gospel, I have to kick them out. This includes the mention of the Jesus without the church invite. Managers claim its rude and if a customer does it, they get booted. Faced harassment from a customer and management didn't let me switch too a different department. Extremely high turnover rate and managers don't replace them, making your job more stressful during peak hours. Hard to use PTO. Little to no training. Too many bachelor and master holding part timers who get lucked out of moving up in the company. Managers give some people no task while pilling on multiple tasks on one person. Too many managers to deal with (and usually never find) and the full timers make you do the dirty work while they "unpack boxes". Its a pro-LGBT anti christian company. If they want to be pro-LGBT, than more power to them. But anti-Christian is discriminatory and unnecessary.
