Pros

Good pay. Good benefits. Constant help from lots of places to help you grow and hone your skills. Most if the company practices what they preach and cares about every teammate success.

Cons

Your success is not based on just you, it's also based on your manager. It's easy for a manager to fake being good at there job. Unless the management cares about your success, you will go nowhere fast.

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.
