Pros

You get a 40% discount that can be applied at Torrid and Hot Topic. Coworkers are friendly.

Cons

Unless you are in management you will likely only get one shift a week. If you're lucky it will be a four hour shift. If you're really lucky it'll be five. But in my case, most of my shifts have been three hours. We generally have one manager in the store along with one associate, which means it's a struggle to complete tasks by the end of the day. It also means that we have a hard time keeping up with customer traffic when it gets slammed. It's harder to make sales goals if you're not assigned to the front of the store.

Pros

Great employee discount, loyal customers.

Cons

Too focused on profit margin to care about employees and customers. Clothing has gone out of style and is constantly trying to keep up with competitors like Maurices and Aerie. Several stores have closed in my area due to low sales.
