Pros

The pay is pretty good. Some of the people there are really nice and the environment is somewhat friendly. It was somewhat easy to assimilate to the store culture.

Cons

I never knew where I stood with the supervisor, I was never given any direction, some of my coworkers were looking for faults to report me about. Some employees hang like vultures for the higher paying jobs. My supervisor hired two more people to the department which was already somewhat full, and no feedback was ever given.

Pros

Ability to learn as much as you can, as fast as you can. There is no one there to stop you. Customers are the best part of the job (which tells you how bad the management is) Good coworkers

Cons

Management has no respect for women or designers. They make a boatload of money off of you, and if you're a woman, turn around and screw you out of raises. Bullying and manipulative. Macho condescending arrogance combined with stupidity and arrogance. But then again, what do you expect from management that is half your age, a fraction of your work experience, NONE of your education, and a fraction of your intelligence. Open door policy if you're a woman means you can walk through the door and be spoken to like you're an idiot. Hard work deserves fair rewards, but only if you're male
