Pros

The discount is great comparatively to other stores in the retail industry.

Cons

-Leadership is not supportive of the part-time workers or those workers that work on the floor the majority of the time. Saw workers often get taken advantage of to extend their shifts - sometimes to 12-14 hour days during the holidays. Most store leadership doesn't even work on the floor and leave their staff to deal with difficult guests. -Often employees were allowed to come to work sick during a pandemic because there was no one else available for coverage. This happened several times throughout COVID-19. -Company preaches that they care about the employee experience, but they do not. Store leaders are often not versed in employment laws nor do they care about employee well being. -Typically cut hours tremendously and staffed the store short on busy days. Leadership never covered call offs. -Filed several complaints against management with regional Human Resources (who lives on the other side of the country and had never visited our store in person) and was removed from the schedule consequently for speaking up as an advocate for my team members. -Leadership gossips about team members calling those that hold them accountable to do their job "difficult". -Customers treat you horribly - often demanding you to do things against store and company policy and leadership would just break rules rather than educate the guest on the appropriate rules.

Pros

The benefits with the sweaty Pursuits is good and the insurance is good too! You get a team that you get to put together and get to know them and see what works for you guys to be successful in a processing shift!

Cons

The nights are long and very overworked. They ask a lot from you and usually they put the business before you. It’s always we need this and that from the managers but not actually taking time to help or to actually see that we are trying our best and if they actually worked a shift with us and saw the struggles they would understand more. They think it’s easy, when the weight of the store depends on us. You are also qualified as a Guest Experience lead since you have to do both trainings so the management do over utilise that and you will be doing two jobs. Even though it says in the description to support the floor but there’s a difference between supporting from time to time and doing it all the time where you are running the floor and the back at the same time but they’ll say “oh why isn’t this done?” Maybe because you’ve told me to help you out ? The are also very selective about who moves up to be a manager. No work life balance at all!
