Pros

Positive working environment with a rising-tides-lifts-all-ships vibe rather than competitive amongst sales team. Store is well-maintained and displays are changed regularly, making it a vibrant place to be daily. The team and customers are a joy to connect with and well supported by management. Would recommend, especially if you are a social person with high integrity for your work.

Cons

Schedules released on fairly short notice making it hard to plan outside of work; however, scheduling is flexible when communicated to manager ahead of time.

Business Outlook

Pros

Fun environment, cool shoes, frequent office parties. Based in the center of midtown. Room for advancement. Work like balance was good (for me but not for some).

Cons

It’s a corporate company so you don’t have flexibility to do anything outside of your limited scope. Sam is a mad man and wants everything clean and his way at all times. You can feel his wrath when he’s in a mood.
