Pros

Competitive pay for all positions. Opportunity to advance. 40% discount. Great FT insurance benefits and managers are 100% paid for. Working for a financially sound company with 0 long term debt. So many more but those are a few.

Cons

None unless you are entitled and don't want to work hard for your results. If you are a manager work life balance can be hard at first but if you recruit, hire and develop a great team they will make the balance good.

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.
