Pros

The company is overall a great company. They try their hardest to take care of their employees. Sometimes you get that one bad egg who destroys it all.

Cons

Its the toxic work environment from store managers that make it very hard to work. The Store manager was not happy unless people were arguing and encouraged the team to not communicate on their own time outaide of work. People have to pretend to not be friends with one another because she gets mad and says " were not friends, were coworkers, you shouldnt be hanging out with one another". She also Made comments about not hiring someone with a disability, and is just an overall liability to the company despite the numerous AR calls from the stores. She will have you do one thing, then deny it and throw you under the bus. I was told this location has the highest AR calls, and its not even the largest location!

Pros

I was retired for years from my Corporate job. Decided that I wanted a part time job to get out of the house. This was my “Happy Place”. Never had a job that I loved so much. Worked hard, had the best customers (loyal) co workers. I learned so much about fashion and dressing different body types. I’ve been in different stores since I left as a customer buying myself clothes. Several ladies came up to me to ask how I am doing this! You’re wonderful at putting things together. I actually helped them put together wardrobes from what I learned. I felt an immense proudness working for RL. I still do. My managers were great and wouldn’t ask you to do anything they wouldn’t. Best of all is the discounts. After almost 5 years of working there, I realized it cost me money to work there. Lol. I’m a clothes nut. I never ever left a shift without a brown paper bag with a Polo Horse on it.

Cons

Some employees are very cut throat about individual sales. We were NOT on commission. Some employees just need to calm down and realize that we work as a team. Most do, but a few bad apples. Not much.
