Pros

- The 40% discount is awesome, especially on Silver Jeans. - Getting to see the current fashion trends before they reach the floor. - Extra discounts around holidays.

Cons

Incredibly stressful. The pressure they put on associates to sell maurices cards is absolutely ridiculous. If someone has the card or is completely opposed to it, I won't continue to push it on them. Never have I once recieved positive feedback, only negative. We aren't given enough time to completely the tasks they present to us.

Pros

Maurices is a very fun company to work for. Positivity and enthusiasm abound. The company wants you to succeed and encourages your career growth. They love to promote from within. Many people have worked here for 20+ years and love it. Benefits are great, the management tries to stay in touch with every level in the organization and values its employees. They do lots of little things to reward successful teams and recognize hard work.

Cons

Pay is low for entry level positions. You'll get one annual review and if you're lucky you'll get a fifty cent raise. Plan on applying for a promotion or a sideways move as soon as possible, that's the only way you can expect to make more money, is in a salaried position. Competition for these jobs is tough; lots of young girls with fashion marketing degrees and a ridiculous fake enthusiasm for fashion. Live eat breathe the corporate culture and you'll succeed. In my last review I received excellent feedback on my past year achievements but was told to change my personality if I wanted a promotion. I understand being a team player and I have a very positive attitude but a dry sarcastic sense of humor and that is what is holding me back. I definitely won't be a lifer here. Also, training is not emphasized, you're on your own to seek out co-workers who will help you. The system crashes on a regular basis. The office is constantly under construction, new offices built then the next year taken down, so there is constant noise and paint fumes.

Pros

Great discount, first pick of new shipment, incompetent management meant there weren't a lot of rules to follow, ability to try on new clothes during shift

Cons

unprofessional management talked constantly about wanting to quit, not wanting to be there, and then turned around and told us to be positive, management prided friendships over work ethic, more emphasis on sales goals then overall productivity, the store stays messy.
