Pros

There are amazing benefits for full time employees, the ability to climb the corporate ladder is dependent upon the employee's individual drive to succeed. The harder you work, the faster you climb.

Cons

Low pay relative to the work that's expected. Dealing with absurd guests gets very old, especially when pay is primarily based off of commission.

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.
