      Pros

      Customers are fun to interact with, coworkers are awesome as well if you are in the right store. Lots of community

      Cons

      No support from upper management, I asked for training for myself and my associates for an entire year and didn’t receive ANY. Hours are incredibly limited so unless you are the store manager you probably won’t be working many hours. Upper management does not do anything to help you despite saying that they do.

      Pros

      Coworkers and culture were definitely the pros of the job.

      Cons

      Mall setting and corporate policies made things unenjoyable. If this place could be franchised and not in a mall with so many other types of people would be much more ideal.
