Pros

40% discount incentives for employees training programs

Cons

poor management skills they open the door for sales associates to not respect you once your get on someone's garbage list, you say goodbye to your promotion, raise, improvement, etc. The district managers only trust there store managers over anyone else. considering they value open and honest feedback. if you have an issue with your store manager, dont expect HR or your district manager to do anything about it. They always brush it under the rug. The pay for sales associates are terrible, considering they have to do about the same work as management. There's lack of communication between management and sales associates in regards to your sales goal for the week. No your not being a sales hog but if your working more of the payroll hours your expected to top that plus more. Store manager is a sales hog, because she wants a bigger bonus. Its about who you know, when getting a promotion.

Pros

The store is small and you get to know all the employees quickly. Knowing the store layout is fairly simple to learn. The company has amazing incentives such as preloaded gift cards, free merchandise, special treat baskets every month you make the standards. 40% discount is great since clothes are pretty high priced. Can be fun when you aren't worried about sales stats.

Cons

You are required to wear maurices clothing, at least $100 worth of product in your outfit. You must also wear jewlery and accessorize everyday or you will hear about it. Well building that sort of wardrobe can take some time and since you can only wear clothes that are currently on the shelf or extremely similar it is hard to keep your closet current. The 40% discount helps but expect at least half of your check to go right back to the store. The company is a huge pushover and take the motto the customer is always right to a whole new level. The customer can basically get away with anything( returning clothes with tags from 3 years ago) and the manager will just say "keep them happy". You are graded on how much you sell, how many items per transaction and how many credit cards you get people to open. You must ask every customer at least 3 times about the credit card. It becomes very uncomfortable. Managment does not want to hear any suggestions that customers might not like the overbearing presence of employees who are trying to push clothing on them to keep their numbers up. If you don't hit your salesmark every week you are put on probation and have to do stupid things like not wear jeans for a week as a punishment. Extremely stressful place to work a majority of the time.
