Pros

The customers made it worth while, loved hearing how they grew up with Levi's and how they took care of them. Also loved my stylist team, we all got along really well.

Cons

This company is so chaotic and is by far, the worst retail company I've ever worked for. Upper management lacks any kind of professionalism. Store managers are uneducated, gossip, and overall don't know how to effectively manage a store. Extremely low pay. Rarely received a lunch break, and was forced to work multiple 12 hour days. Not flexible with school at all. I would rather be unemployed, and homeless, than work for this company. Jeans are way overpriced. I used to love Levi's and everything that it standed for, but not now. I will not ever shop at any Levi's location ever again. Almost impossible to move up in this company, but why would anyone even want to? DM's are cut throat and belittle everyone at any chance they get. Things are only getting worse, Levi's needs to realize that they can't keep treating people the way they do. It's all too political too. SM'sill talk very negatively about their DM's, however, speak with them often to gossip about the store.

Pros

-Free outfit when you start and one free jean each year. -I love the team i work with (for the most part). -thats it.

Cons

Nothing but reorganization every year... upper management is selfish, unrealistic thinking, and often rude to those under store manager level. pay is garbage as well as the so called "raises". too much favoritism. too much external hiring and not enough internal promotions. Allocation is a joke. The employee discount is a joke. The computer system (Raymark) network is constantly going down and the ancient scraps they call computers are terribly slow and unreliable. Bad turnover rate...and the worst is being made to play the bad guy and do corporates dirty work by cutting hours, cutting shifts in the middle of the week, giving a lot of associates 0 hours in a week and then explaining it to the staff. Very low or no incentive for part time hourly employees but constant bombardment with high expectations and goals with little support.
