Pros

Company still growing so lots of upward mobility. Opportunity to travel, competitive pay, overall nice people and fun place to work. Works with local community for service projects and will allow you to Volunteer during work hours.

Cons

Female dominated assistants and buyers, yet male dominated as you move up the ranks. Has gotten better over the years, but still seems odd and unbalanced. Lots of young moms in the mix who feel they can't get ahead because a male counterpart will get management's approval first. Sometimes promotions based on a subjective factors & not performance.

Pros

All of my coworkers were wonderful. No high school drama. Boss was flexible and understanding, although he always liked it if you said you could work more hours. The employee discount is pretty awesome. The work wasn't bad and rude customers were rare.

Cons

There was pressure to come in even when you were sick. Pay wasn't the greatest; it usually stayed ahead of minimum wage, but by no means kept up with inflation. Visits from corporate often meant a new change in procedures that had been working and demands that were somewhat unreasonable given the constraints of the layout or number of employees available.
