      Loved my coworkers and the fast-paced environment

      Cons

      Management doesn't do that much to recognize harder working employees and the employee discount is nothing compared to other stores. Hours sucked.

      I worked at Forever 21 part-time for less than a year

      Pros

      You had an employee discount.

      Cons

      Forever 212019-11-08

    5. "It was nuts"

      StarStarStarStarStar
      Former Employee - Sales Associate in Tucson, AZ

      I worked at Forever 21 part-time for less than a year

      Pros

      Apparently I have to review some job I've had to keep using glassdoor and I figure since Forever 21 is bankrupt now I can just go for it The customers normally were polite. There was camaraderie between employees. I told a girl she looked beautiful in a dress she was trying on because she was so pretty I blurted it, and she ended up buying the dress so that was nice I guess?

      Cons

      The store was stuff to the brim and always a mess no matter what we did. Like some of the racks were so full we literally could not put more hangers on them, but when we sent them back to the fitting room to be sent to a different section, they'd end up back in the same stuffed corner. Employee discount was laughable The management didn't trust their staff as far as they could throw them. Learning how the... store worked was a nightmare why is the clothing organized by color, then texture, then best guess? None of the clothes ended up together!

      I have been working at Forever 21 part-time for more than 3 years

      Pros

      Obtaining store cards and emails from customers was essential to boost sales. Rewards were given to whoever obtained the most of one or the other. You can make friends with fellow sale associates. Closing isn't so bad when you got people to talk to

      Cons

      Only 10% employee discount. Not enough hours. The time it takes to clean the store and close is ridiculous.

      Advice to Management

      need to give more hours

      Advice to Management

      Please care about your workers. We know there are rules but caring about your workers and having a good relationship with them will make work less dreadful

      I have been working at Forever 21 full-time

      Pros

      Lunch in the cafeteria is only $1.

      Cons

      Pay and benefits aren’t very good. Co workers are a little clique-y. Employee discount is pointless.

      Approves of CEO

      I worked at Forever 21 part-time for more than a year

      Pros

      It was a great work environment, made a lot of friends and had fun. Good energy, loved working with customers to put together outfits.

      Cons

      No chance for advancement if I wasn’t close to the higher ups outside of work. 10% discount was measly and I couldn’t return if I used employee discount.

      Advice to Management

      Be weary of the popularity contest & favoritism interfering with the workplace.
