Pros

The best thing about working at Journeys is their customers. The atmosphere is laid back and mostly everyone that works with you has a positive attitude.

Cons

The whole concept of the pay system, and the way that the part-timers get shafted on hours. First of all I was lied to. apparently I was suppose to get minimum wage and after a month if I met all my SOPs I would also get commission (BS) not only did I not get commission but after the summer I was only put on the schedule 1 maybe 2 shifts and these are 4 hour shifts for next to nothing. Also I am not a slouch I work hard all the time, I know the back room like the back of my hand I have no problems helping other employees and I help with decisions made by management with store structure, but its not worth it for the pay and hours.

Pros

40% Discount on shoes Cool music

Cons

- Insulting wages. As a Co - Manager I made 225 a week plus commission. Key holders end up making more as they are hourly. Co Managers are expected to do everything Managers do at half the pay. - On average worked 50 to 72 hours a week (on salary). Was told I cannot leave until I made unrealistic budget. By staying later, mgmt then takes away from part timers who are treated as a dime a dozen. - Was instructed to write up part timers 3 times in one shift, and fire for not making budget or selling socks/accessories/multiples, didn't go through with it, but did have to let go of some very hard working people with bad luck - Entire district were regularly called pathetic via company emails.
