Pros

Great training program! I felt 100% prepared on my own after completing the training class... very thorough! Unlike other stores during the Christmas season, there are were no crazy holiday hours. (no early morning/late nights). Paid time & a half on Sundays. Closed on Thanksgiving. Floor managers were always friendly & helpful. Customers were generally pleasant.

Cons

Seasonal employees only get a 10% discount. Ridiculous sales goals... It is EXTREMELY hard to meet them with so many associates working at the same time in one department. We were often fumbling over each other trying to make it. Myself & the other seasonal employee often felt animosity towards us from regular employees whenever we made a sale.

Pros

Employee discount- 20%. Can't find anything else positive!

Cons

1.Schedule is all over the place 2. Have to do truck twice a week with 0 help and just 1 person per dept. 3. Worst benefits EVER, pto given out every quarter which makes it hard to plan any time off.. you get like 20hrs every quarter... 4. Not allowed to take any unpaid time off.. 5. You get points for being late 1 minute, yes 1 minute and you get an tardee.. 6. Wannabe Micromanagers. 7. Managers hired straight out of collage with 0 work experiance who try to tell ppl with 20+ retail experiance how to do their jobs. 8. 0 communication and that is about anything.. if your co worker from your dept. Calls sick that day , you are not told but have to ask yourself when you see that they are not there.. 9. Dress code is a joke. Mr.VonMaur is stuck in the 80s.
