Pros

Very good company that cares about the community and will give back during hard times. Most positions are minimum wage but loss prevention does pay significantly better. The company is expanding and is working diligently to grow into a 40 billion per year company. Excellent internal promotion possibilities on the store side if your willing to devote yourself.

Cons

This company is all about saving money so don't expect to be offered a competitive salary. You have to fight for any pay raises and the yearly raises are a joke. You can get promoted but don't expect them to give you what they would give an external candidate. This company loves external candidates and many times won't even hold interviews or post open positions if they can find a good external candidate.

Pros

The only pros I can name are the hybrid model and the experience of the industry.

Cons

-OFFENSIVE pay, as we are the backbone of the business. Do not take this role unless you want to be struggling to afford to live. -Absoutely NO career growth, NO opportunity to be promoted at all, and little to no pay increase each year, if you count inflation. You can be stuck in this position your whole life and they will never promote or move you, no exaggeration. -Huge “below me, better than you” stuck up personality, even the buyers do not treat their assistants with basic respect. -Extremely corporate, every manager has a scripted reply back to you and your question gets passed through 5 people before you get a response. -Very old and slow systems, but a billion dollar company. -Very disorganized, lack of communication between various depts/areas of the company, nobody ever knows what’s going on. -Extremely huge on NEPOTISM. -Assistants are all pretty much paid the same, with some having little to no work vs. some being extremely busy nonstop due to department placement. -Bottom line, we are the backbone of the company. There would be NO product in the stores without us and no business growth and we know more than the average planner or buyer. However, we are treated like dirt to the company and then rewarded with ice cream parties to make up for it. DO NOT DO IT
