Pros

Teamwork Focus on creating a Fast, Fun, and Friendly place to work for our hourly team members, unfortunately that stops at the hourly level.

Cons

work/life balance Too many executives hired directly out of college with no leadership experience expected to run $35-$100 million stores makes it extremely difficult for their peers

Pros

If you are looking for a job that you’ll be a part of a fun team environment, have the ability to learn all about customer “guest” service, retail operations and sales, as well as merchandising even at entry level great opportunity. for such a large corporation I have been pleasantly surprised by how tight knit teams are. applying was okay, there were multiple steps (videos, assessments) but overall not too bad)., phone call and then video questions before hiring.

Cons

Pay isn’t great, but for the market it’s fair. Moving up involves a much larger increase in responsibilities and workload relative to the pay increase.
