Pros
I've heard there's better times of the year than others with pay, and I works with some pretty cool people. Associates are hourly
Cons
Everything else, mostly pay and hours. Minimum management has to work 45 hours. When I was there my store was understaffed only having me and one other co working there. This meant if we wanted to have our 1 day off a week the other manager would have to work an open to close. 9am-10pm no break. Not that you would want to break when your paycheck majority comes from selling and the 4% commission you make. Sell $100 pair of shoes= $4 in your paycheck. $50=$2 in your pocket. Don't even get me started on SOPs I work retail so I get adding on but some people get pissed when they ask for 1 shoe and you come out with 4 plus socks and accessories. There's a certain percentage all of these need to be at selling. No work/life balance because of hours, and high turnover rate. Needless to say I didn't last long at all and neither does a lot of other management
