Pros

The discount. 40% off everything without a spending limit. 50% off once every 2 months.

Cons

They don't teach you any true product knowledge. They're supposed to specialize in denim, but I had to ask 5 times for someone to explain to me about the product so i can relay the information to customers. ( the divisional manager, the regional manager, and the merchandiser all said that the jeans came from different countries- 1 said Us, 1 said italy, 1 said japan) They expect you to do an insane amount of work. be prepared to devote much of your off time to your job as well if you want to perform well at all. They do not teach you any selling techniques, so if its not naturally your strong suit, forget it they accept no excuses and I have had the store manager and district manager yell at me. I'm not the only one. There's just a lot of yelling going on in the company- it is due to the extreme pressure each level of management is placed under to make sales targets.

Pros

The only pro i can think of is the fact that you get a good discount on the clothes in the store.

Cons

Mimimum wage, not enough breaks, work 5 hours without a break,when by law, you are entitled to a 15 minute break if you work 5 hours.
