Pros

A lot of my former coworkers have become my close friends. The pay wasn't terrible (have worked for less in retail). The casual atmosphere made you feel comfortable.

Cons

The managers lack communication and scheduling skills. Being only 5 inline stores in the US, there is no room to grow. Confused branding; I worked there 3.5 years and couldn't tell you what the demographic was. Favoritism was very heavy.

Pros

Opportunities for growth and great benefits.

Cons

Management is so incredibly catty. There's drama every month, not just between associates, but mostly with management and leadership. The store manager is also good friends with the district manager so if you had any HR violations with her it wouldn't be taken seriously and they would just laugh about it in their video calls. So many HR violations have been made here its not even funny. I recommend the company as well as Nike who owns them but do yourself a favor and stay away from the Philadelphia Premium Outlets location.
