      Pros

      Managers were friendly and receptive to employee ideas. The job duties were very clear.

      Cons

      Corporate did not allow employees enough freedom in making decisions about product placement.

      Get more employee feedback and encourage employees to move up the corporate ladder.

      Pros

      Fun, friendly staff, good discount, flexible schedule

      Cons

      wages, very low hourly, with little hope of making more

      Advice to Management

      Management is great, corporate needs to at least compete with Target and Walmart for wages. For all the many talented employees, the monetary compensation is very low.

        I worked at Pier 1 Imports part-time for more than 3 years

        Pros

        The people I worked with were great. Being a military wife it was great to find my family there. Also, being able to shop with a slight discount was cool. Flexible scheduling was also very nice.

        Cons

        The benefits are terrible, the pay is terrible, and the discount is not great. This company will need a change in the next few years if they want to stay relevant. To pay minimum wage in this day and age is almost insulting. I'm not saying they need to pay $15 an hour, but $7.25 an hour starting is ridiculous. Especially since I was at a store where we worked a lot of hours in the beginning since we were opening a new...

        Advice to Management

        Push for a high wage! Stronger benefits, even just one!

        Pros

        My team is great, we are very supportive of each other, build each other up, help each other be successful! I think your job is what you make of it. People are working fast and furious to get things done and meet deadlines.

        Cons

        There is a lot of change going on, which can be seen as a positive, unless you have a hard time with change.

        Advice to Management

        Focus on building the skills and abilities of the members of your team so they can grow and set up for advancement.

            Pros

            Great benefits, thorough training, safe workplace, good starting pay, room for growth. I have loved the management as well. They are so helpful and I always feel cared for at work.

            Cons

            Customer service can always be tough, so that would be the biggest downfall for me. Some people are mean at times for no reason, and we have to act normal about it.
