Pros

The employee discount is awesome-being able to use it at all 3 brands Gap Inc. owns. Gap managers are some of the most well-rounded managers in the business. They get their feet wet in all aspects of running a business-managing employees, owning/running the business aspect, HR, etc. In these economic times it is nice to work for a very stable company.

Cons

Due to the fact that it is such a large company sometimes it feels very "corporatey."

Pros

Great discount that is applicable to sister brands Old Navy and Banana Republic. Flexible scheduling. Work as a holiday temp & stock up!

Cons

Poor management that are snooty, snobby and cliquish. They constantly look down on Sales Associate. No appreciate whatsoever. No ability to recognize hardworking employees versus lazy employees. No recognition of people's past work experience & how they can bring their talents/skills to the Gap.

Pros

The discount and working with the customers can be exciting. The environment is good, and with the music playing and the fun clothing, it made for a fun place to work. The other employees on my same level were also very good.

Cons

The pay was not very good, and the workers were generally pretty good. The managers were not very good at what they do, and had their own hidden agendas when trying to get you to do things. They played favorites, and hours were not spread out evenly. It seemed like the managers did not want to help you better yourself in the company.
