      Pros

      Strong financial position to weather through the pandemic, office closure at the end of the year, summer Friday’s, competitive bonus structure and great insurance options.

      Cons

      Company is solely focused on bottom line. As some reviews have stated, the company is now urging everyone to go back to the office beginning of July and attend vendor appointments and “important” meetings. There is a complete lack of concern for the health and well being of its employees. When asked if vendor appointments were optional, the company said “no”. They have also said that we should be competitive shopping just as we were pre covid. It is their expectation. Have they realized that nothing is back to normal? The company has always prided itself on being conservative, but this is the most aggressive action that has ever been taken. No one wants to go back to the office and meet people face to face! We have found some inner peace working remotely and a healthier work/life balance (even though we are all working 10-12 hour days still). Do not make us good back in the middle of a pandemic when cases are still rising throughout the country.

      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.

      Pros

      Even though this is with my store specifically I got really lucky with my coworkers. Every season change there is 40% off for about a week other than that is 20%. They also have scholarship opportunities.

      Cons

      It’s a really physical job, sometimes it’s so busy that you can’t even take a break especially during Christmas season, you WILL debate working there during that time. The store hours are horrible and since most of the time were understaffed we won’t leave until almost midnight just cleaning up.
