Banana Republic Employee Reviews about "great discount"

Pros

the only reason I stayed for the time I did was for the employee discount really and also my coworkers were amazing.

Cons

toxic work environment, managers hire too many teenagers who aren't much help to the store, managers will also sometimes throw you under the bus when it comes to sticking to the store policies. That also brings up the reason why i left, the customers here are the rudest people ever, they seem to have no respect, class, and think they are so entitled.

Pros

Banana has a great clothing line that is easy to sell. Employees are given 50% discount on full price items and 10% sale items.

Cons

Very poor hourly wage with few attainable incentives. A good part time employee (25/week) has more opportunity to earn a 1% commission that full-time employees (32-39/week).

Pros

I loved the environment at this location everyone was friendly and the discounts were amazing.

Cons

Hated having to get Banana Republic Card applications

Pros

As a brand Gap is pretty great to their employees and so Banana is the same. Friends and family Generous discount Upper management does what they can to make you feel supported

Cons

Performance reviews don't happen fast or often enough in terms of performance raises. The training structure could be better

Pros

Discount and interacting with other interesting coworkers

Cons

Terrible managers toxic work culture that promotes micro managing and burn out at all levels

Pros

Great part time job. Flexible with scheduling around full time job and a Great discount

Cons

Closing stores in San Antonio

Pros

Gap Inc. is a great company to work for! They are very active in community projects. Gap Inc. provides excellent benefits including 401K and tuition reimbursement to all employees as well as employee discounts to all three brands.

Cons

Management at the store level is horrible. Over the years, management has changed due to the increasing pressure from corporate. Since online sales have hurt business, managers are taking their frustrations out on sales associates when they can’t meet their sales and credit card goals.

Pros

Good for practicing customer service skills; good for learning to work as a team; discount on clothes.

Cons

Zero benefit options for part-time workers; inconsistent scheduling; very limited opportunities for career development.

Pros

the employee discount would be my number one and apart from that it is nice to work at such beautiful store

Cons

the management there is horrible

Pros

Very flexible. Great training and on boarding. Will train in multiple aspects of retail. Employee benefits and discounts are the best I've seen and heard from comparable jobs.

Cons

Only average pay. Somewhat uninformed upper management. Monotonous
