Pros

A sense of faith and closeness to your spirituality. Getting to share God with everyone who walks through the door.

Cons

Horrible hours (you're there until AT LEAST eleven at night)...talk about NO work/life balance. The company has done truly unethical things like working people technically off the clock before they are even officially logged into the system and had their paperwork processed (can you say ILLEGAL?) and then the store manager will have you go in and falsify hours by adding them into payroll weeks later. It took one of our managers almost 2 entire months to get her paycheck. Apparently contacting headquarters every single day regarding not getting your paycheck AND having your regional manager and district manager "on it" still doesn't resolve the issue for months. Absolutely ridiculous considering the manager had been an employee for over a year before this incident. The pay is awfully low considering they request you to work overtime and you're salary. Not only are hours stretched over long and endless days, but they let absolutely deceitful and foolish "adults" hold the title of store manager.

Pros

Literally nothing, can’t think of one positive thing

Cons

I’ve been with the company for years and watching its continuous downfall has become almost comical. Two years ago we took major pay cuts (like 15%) because of the economy but this year they sent us to the Virgin Islands on this over the top meeting that must have cost a fortune. I’d rather have the money in my bank versus a trip I was forced to go on with senior leadership that are absolute horrific people in general and evil businesses people. It all felt like a big propaganda event with tons of videoing and picture taking so they could come home and post all over linked in and social media about how WONDERFUL it is to work there. Don’t even get me started on the new Little House on the Prairie denim dresses we have to wear because they hire managers that aren’t even strong enough to coach to a dress code. How can you run a store if you can’t even tell someone what they’re wearing inappropriate? Instead now we look like a bunch of little followers of the cult everyone already says it is. As long as we say we “stand out for good” at every opportunity it must mean it’s true right? To know who else brainwashed people into thinking bad things are good for them? CULT LEADERS.
