Pros

Lots of great brands. Flexible schedule.

Cons

No paid holidays, push for the house brand is insane (what is the point of open sell if you can't sell what you want or what the client truly needs?), due to lack of payroll frequently working open to close shifts, more and more events every season, upper management is rude and disorganized, there is promoting from with in but the higher you climb the more miserable you become, no interest in the welfare of employees (ie: expected to work during a snow emergency when it is clearly not safe to drive, unaffordable health care), environmentally unfriendly (keeps the doors open most of the year, uses way too much paper by printing and faxing reports every day instead of transmitting electronically), lack of benefits and decent hourly plus having to pay for parking limits the numbers of strong candidates interested.

Pros

Business hours and get to meet some great clients

Cons

Lack of recognition for hard workers. No pay increase. Some employees are getting paid 30+ an hour at most stores and complain about a couple of cents from pay increase where people like myself is getting paid $10 less with no pay increase. Full time employees will do the most work more than anyone else, including management. Management also receives the most recognition over the employees that do the most work. This company has been bought out by Macy’s so I don’t think they care to hear what employees have to say.
