Pros

Fantastic co-workers, good benefits overall. Salaries are decent, but in no way extraordinary. I get to do a job that I love, with people I consider my friends, not just my coworkers! The overall atmosphere is friendly. Vacations and time off are flexible. Senior management has an open door policy, and is open to feedback.

Cons

Lack of communication regarding performance and expectations , especially from Senior management. Unfair advancement/promotion "opportunities". Overwhelming workload at times, with no understanding/action taken by management to improve the situation. They want all the work done, even though the staff is half missing and you can't go a minute over your alloted hours....

Pros

They have pretty good pay. You get to be around decent merchandise. The people are good for the most part.

Cons

The hours are very difficult to do. Nights and weekends get old after the first week. Customers are sometimes very pushy but nothing new with retail

Pros

Pay is ok..Management is hit or miss. For a retail job it is not all that bad. For workers on commision, there is potential to make alot of money here. The busiest times are during the holidays; otherwise it can get kind of slow.

Cons

If you are working on commision, you might have to take use your "draw" pay frequently. Employee quality is a mixed bad-some are dedicated and helpful while others are not so hot. In addition, you must have on business attire.
