Pros

Solid paid time off and benefits program. There are quite a few leads and associates who have been with the company for a long time and have a lot of knowledge.

Cons

The hours are extremely long and grueling during the holiday season. My store typically gets so busy by the time we open, that the only way we get merchandising done is to come in at 4 am. The company offers every other weekend off, but this is not often accurate. I have not received a weekend off since October and I'm making this post in the middle of January.

Pros

Pay is very good once you start getting raises. Weekly pay

Cons

Genuinely everything else, the pay is that high because they have to pay you over 25 just to put up with the awful environment. terrible structure, terrible management, no accountability, cliquey mean girl environment. managers are allowed to sit around and do essentially nothing while supervisors carry 100% of the load and there is no checks and balances to ensure management does the right thing. Corporate and HR genuinely don't care if certain people sit on their butt While others keep the business running. Credit card pushing is absolutely Off the Wall insane. Getting enough credit cards is all the company cares about and managers do not help. Managers are allowed to have no history with getting any credit cards at all and corporate doesn't bat an eye. If you try to speak out about anything that's going on you'll just get fired. Retaliation is allowed and encouraged.
