Pros

Employee discount is the only benefit to working at buckle in Pittsburgh Pa

Cons

Verbally abusive management that makes it extremely hard to have a positive attitude . There is no encouragement from the manager only degrading comments. This toxic manager creates a very low morale which directly contributes to lower sales from sales associates. The company does not factor abuse into the hourly pay . Manager also steals the employees sales which is odd since she does not get paid commission.

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.
