40% employee discount, getting to help people with their style/being a personal shopper, always positive energy in the store, i've learned something new every day, management is friendly and easy to talk to

Cons

working on commission, customers complaining about our sales style, our prices, customers spending lots of time in the store (meaning you're spending your time on a potential sale) and not purchasing anything

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.
