Pros

Great Gap, Inc Brands discount. Wonderful community involvement and giving back through Gap Foundatin and Be What's Possible. Every store is different, tone set by general manager and team.

Cons

A good amount of favoritism inside a district. Moving up was who you knew and who liked you, not your work experience or results. The bigger the store the more unusual the hours. The bigger boxes pull overnights frequently. Being a brand manager is definitely more demanding than the customer manager.

Pros

It's a job and it pays, albeit very little.

Cons

Everything else about working here sucks. You never get enough time to do anything. Managers are constantly on your case because you're never going fast enough. The idiotic people in upper management decided to cut costs by cutting staff, so you have to do the work of 1.5 people with no time. You will be berated when you fail to meet unrealistic expectations. Customers have noticed that the store is understaffed and always complain about it. Unfortunately, upper management doesn't care about customer or employee complaints. Gap only cares about how much money they make. Nobody cares about you as a person. You are just a tool for making them more money.
