Pros

The only "pro" to working for Buckle is the 40% discount on everything in the store starting from day 1. They will try to get you to buy something just about everyday of the week though

Cons

The company has lost complete focus of the one thing that got them to where they are now. The people, it's employees. The company has no regard for the rigorous efforts its employees put into the company to bolster its crumbling reputation. If you are the type of person that needs to be appreciated for the work you do Buckle is not the company for you.

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.
