Pros

I get to wear all black to work and my store manager is amazing. You get 40% off full price and 10% off clearance, not that great.

Cons

You do not get rewarded for trying harder than someone else, in fact people who work less hours get more of a bonus ($1.75 for 36 hrs vs $72 for 12) which screws closing and opening managers big time since there is no traffic during those hours. Their "incentives and contests" only get you "rewards" like getting to buy something from them for less money, yay! Upper management keeps enforcing rules that are the same for every boutique no matter what volume they are. There is absolutely no regard for the employees' well-being. My store has a piece of equipment that is dangerous and it is only a matter of time until someone hurts themselves. When we submitted a request to replace it, they said it's an item that you get one of. If you work here you will feel like you don't matter to anyone but your own team, which will beat you down, get you miserable and force you to get a better paying job no matter how much you love the profession.

Pros

Fun at times with conversations amongst employees

Cons

The pettiness The bad mouthing of current employees or past employees, if the manager was talking about them I am sure she was talking about me Manager gave out her phone number to all employees to contact by text or calls, when I had to text her , her reply back was condescending and not to pleasant. I got an apology the next day. She knew she was wrong She got a bad review because she did not present herself in a positve way when helping a customer, she talked about the previous management I had an upcoming date that I needed off and she knew but she scheduled me for that day anyway I was told there was a review about me apologizing to much? That was a lie, I looked at all the reviews none about me but she had a negative one about her I only apologized to my customers if we did not have a product or we did not fit their expectations Yes I did apologize to some employees, I was in training and learning. Im sure it was the fellow coworkers that complained I do have problems with my right foot and at the moment my nice pair of nikes was providing more comfort to my feet, and was told I needed a drs note? But another employee who his younger was wearing very dirty tennis shoes, not a good look if they a noticably dirty Not good training, barely had any
