Pros

Fun environment, not stressful, great discount... 30% off regular price, 50% off sale items and 60% off select items. Part time employees are eligible for health insurance, as low as $9 a week. And you get paid every week.

Cons

Sometimes JCrew customers have unreasonable expectations and we have to acquiesce regardless. The pay is low and you end up spending your check on their clothes because of the great discount. The commission is only .5% and if you don't make a certain amount of sales (selling cost) they will cut your pay. The personal shoppers cut in on your customers and take your sales, so it's hard to make your "selling cost".

Pros

Discount was incredible, company was very well organized and training was really great when it came to knowing the company. I had great relationships with my managers, and actually enjoyed working holiday season with them! They made sure to include incentives for us to sell more with commission, or little door prizes. It's a brand that people trust, and we were able to trust it as well.

Cons

"On-Call" was very frustrating as a student employee, it was difficult to plan around that schedule.
