      Pros

      The pay is great. You work on commission so you're in charge of how much money you end up making.

      Cons

      Since the work is commission based, it can get competitive between employees on the sales floor. Each department is different

      Pros

      Discount discount discounts! Sense of community and most departments were open to conducting informational interviews for lateral career growth. Open door policy definitely exists.The majority of corporate departments were easy going. Inverted Pyramid structure is GREAT! Monthly sales recognition meetings are amazing for instilling comraderie and company togetherness. Employee shopping benefits - sales, events, trunk shows. Ongoing employee recognition was great.

      Cons

      None of the above "pros" apply to the following: One vp was quick to overly criticize the small things, while neglecting to give praise or recognition for positive results. I witnessed one employee slowly deteriorate and lose all confidence in their ability to do their daily work. Corporate director played favorites, and it was obvious. Made inaccurate judgement accusations relating to diveristy, resulting in unfair treatment througout their tenure. Majority of paycheck goes towards purchases- hard to save.
