Pros

Great pay, excellent benefits(401k, med, dental, vision insurance, paid holidays, paid vacations) Great customers. Promotes quickly(both pro and con)

Cons

Working 3 weekends a month, TESS is a terrible scheduling system! You will close then turn around and be there at 7am. The turnover rate is unbelievable. Very sexist company. They have a high class mindset with low class management (Not skilled, no previous mgmt experience) It's very often that associates know more than store managers do about product.

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.
