Pros

Leadership training in addition to sales training. Upper management is genuinely invested in your progression. They give you complete ownership over your business yet still lend a hand in training and support. You are generously compensated for your efforts. I learned a lot about myself as a person and leader. I am challenged daily. Perfect job for the life long learner.

Cons

Life Balance can be tough. Also, the lack of Branding and Marketing in their new markets can wear you out.

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.
