HQ - Terrible Culture and Work Environment

Anonymous employee
Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

You do get to own many projects and initiatives. You also get to work on many teams and build relationships across the company fairly often.

Cons

Leadership is terrible and unresponsive to infrastructure issues that need improvement to pave way for growth. Managers of people receive no training on the development of their direct reports and many managers are unsuited to be overseeing a team.

Not A Pretty Place To Work

CEO approval

Pros

Abundant Free Products. Lots of exposure (though almost no education) on many top selling brands. Opportunity to meet lots of interesting clients.

Cons

Comparatively poor pay . Blatant favoritism by store leadership. Never can count on your schedule due to numerous "on -call" hours and being sent home early if traffic is down. When you're hired, great promises are made about the potential to earn monthly sales bonuses, but the goals are continually raised making a bonus virtually unattainable. Often have to wait ten to fifteen minutes (when already off the clock) to have coats or personal articles inspected by management for stolen merchandise be.fore being permitted to leave the store. Turnover is huge. Benefits are expensive and minimal.
