Pros
Great clothing perks! You get a 50% discount once a season on 1 pair of pants, 1 dress, 1 skirt, etc. The customers are better than most retail customers - it's often a girl dressing up for her first interview, someone who was recently promoted, looking for a dress for a wedding, etc.
Cons
Compensation was low, but that's retail!
Advice to Management
Consider a commission structure. AT is a unique brand that allows women to connect, if there was more incentive to sell, I'm sure some of the Associates would bring in more business.

Pros
Flexible schedules will work with your needs. Good company culture with a focus on professional/strong women as the target customer.
Cons
Doesn't pay that much per hour and some late nights required. Standing a lot.
Advice to Management
My store seemed to be short staffed constantly and rumor has it they cannot "afford" to have more staff in store. If that is the case it is really bad for the staff who are working extra hard and for the customers who do not get the ideal level of customer service.

Pros
Working with Marianne was awesome. Veronica and Scarlet were also good role models and were understanding. You sell well then you get good hours basically.
Cons
Was hard when retail was slow and you couldn’t get hours. Sometimes was a bit under appreciated since new staff would get tons of weekly hours in comparison to people who had been there longer.
Advice to Management
Stop hiring so many staff if there are only so many hours to give.
