Pros

Great culture, promotion opportunities, female based office, relaxed vacation time, casual office setting, no real dress code. They give you leads.

Cons

work way too much with nooooo pay. You have to work way too hard to see any $. They will make promises about commission that will never happen unless you have a huge network of rich guys in Dallas that consistently want to shop. Expect to work nights and weekends. Sales goals must be met and increase every month.

Pros

Decent base pay, somewhat autonomous, great tip potential.

Cons

The company has changed for the worse since COVID. When I came back the mood of the entire store had shifted. Gone were the days of comradery, customer focus, and taking pride in a job well done. In its place there is a new culture of cutthroat sales, a severe decline in customer focus, and worst of all a new focus on profit over customer satisfaction. When I was told that the amount the store charged for a shoe shine was not enough to do the best job I could for a customer I knew things had gone downhill for the company. Not to mention I watch a manager prey on a mentally disabled person in order to secure a sale, when the person could not understand what was being offered. Sad that such a once great company is now just another greed ridden corporation.
