Pros

Bonuses for making goals Marciano boutique Location on Michigan Avenue Can be fun at times 40-50% discount on certain items Most employees are good to work with Seems to be getting better

Cons

Acceptable pay "Zoning" and using walkie-talkies Sometimes unreasonably high sales goals Closing sucks (sometimes there until 11...other larger stores finish way before) Open until 9 (most stores open until 8) Sometimes understaffed Management will make you work more hours than you want Some unfair treatment by management Keeping the sale area organized is a nightmare Michigan Avenue sucks on holidays Doing stock checks is highly inefficient

The hours are long and sometimes there are some obstacles when it comes to hiring but nothing I can't handle.
