Pros

You get to meet interesting people and get a nice discount on Buckle clothing.

Cons

You work for 4.25 an hour plus commissions. Which seems great until you have to work non sales positions while clocked in on sales. Plus all returns your customers make come out of your paycheck, so be careful! Big brother is always watching, If you're not working, home office calls your manager because they're watching the security cameras to make sure you're always busy.

Pros

40% employee discount, getting to help people with their style/being a personal shopper, always positive energy in the store, i've learned something new every day, management is friendly and easy to talk to

Cons

working on commission, customers complaining about our sales style, our prices, customers spending lots of time in the store (meaning you're spending your time on a potential sale) and not purchasing anything

Pros

Leadership training in addition to sales training. Upper management is genuinely invested in your progression. They give you complete ownership over your business yet still lend a hand in training and support. You are generously compensated for your efforts. I learned a lot about myself as a person and leader. I am challenged daily. Perfect job for the life long learner.

Cons

Life Balance can be tough. Also, the lack of Branding and Marketing in their new markets can wear you out.
