Pros
Journeys is a great place to work if you don't have a college degree, are not sure what you really want to do, or if your look prohibits you from working at most other places (tattoos, piercings, etc...). I worked for the company for 5 years. I gained a lot of valuable experience working there but it didn't mesh well with the rest of my life goals.
Cons
Don't plan on making a career out of Journeys if you ever want to go back to school. It is almost looked down upon. Journeys is a horrible place to work if you have a family or kids. It is a lot of hours so even on your days off you will be so tired that it makes it hard to do much of anything else.There were many times around holidays I would clear 60+ hours a week. I don't think any week as a manager I ever did less than 50 hrs.
