Pros

fabulous co-workers as they are very adept at hiring "top talent", articulate, educated, well groomed , personable etc..., flexible scheduling

Cons

Call in shifts should be illegal, a "part-time job" should have a minimum of 20 hours guarnteed- here it is three...many people on payroll with three hours a week though begging for more hours...company provides not a job, but an "opportunity" to work via "call-in" shifts which far out number scheduled shifts...you must be available these 20 or so hours, the majority of which you will never work...no benefits, no hours, no security, no breaks, no respect...sub par wages, associates constantly asked if we work on commission...these associates can sell! yet are never rewarded for performance

Pros

The management treats you with respect. It was a really fun place to work. Visual is quit exciting to do and look at.

Cons

The customer is not always right. Very heavy workload. It is dangerous and quit hard to have only one associate in the store at a time.

Pros

Competitive salary, great discount, quality products. GREAT benefits (health insurance, etc.) as well as an impressive amount of paid time off.

Cons

Poor work/life balance. No freedom in merchandising or operational practices--EVERYTHING is dictated to the letter by corporate. They frown upon new ideas. Lots of gossiping between stores.
