Pros

Working for Buckle will develop you as a leader and grow you in all areas! It's an incredible company to work for! -customer service skills -training one on one with store manager -leader meetings to help challenge you -great environment! -visual merchandising tools and flexibly to express fashion sense

Cons

Due to it being retail, you have to work a LOT of hours (if on management team) and it's commissioned based (unless store manager) so during slow seasons, an extra effort is required to increase 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.
