Pros

The discount is good. 40%. Flexible schedule.

Cons

Favorites are obvious...team leaders dating teammates with manager's knowledge and no repercussions, which is against policy. (this is only one example of many). Management is young and inexperienced. People who have worked there for years believe the Buckle is the only place in the world that matters. Sales SHARKS! Environment is based on who is working that particular shift. Moral goes down when manager is present because they expect so much and there is a pressure for a hard sell.

Pros

-Good work-life balance. -Team-building is encouraged. -The experience can vary by location. -Buckle has the potential to have some of the best retail teams, depending on the store. -There are opportunities for growth and career advancement for employees who have supportive leadership.

Cons

Management's willingness to lead, communicate effectively, and support employees is what creates opportunities for growth, but that was not my experience at this location. I felt the work environment was negatively affected by inconsistent communication, a leadership style that felt overly controlling, and discussions about employees that appeared to undermine teamwork and trust. I believe a more respectful, supportive, and collaborative approach to leadership would create a healthier workplace culture and better support both employees and the overall success of the store.
