Pros

You can make pretty good money if you work at a busy store, especially around the holidays. You also learn to become a great salesman/woman which help you wherever else you choose to go. You also learn to handle rejection really well and how to work around it.

Cons

It is commission based, so if you have bad/slow days it will reflect on your paycheck

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.
