Pros

Great discount, flexible schedule, great coworkers, even better guests.

Cons

High expectations that are not compensated with pay, catty culture that is toxic at times, constantly getting commission stolen... no communication with manager except for intense criticism that often made associates cry. Manager would even call employees on their days off and lecture them about things that they had done. Bad bad environment.

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.
