Pros

The store I worked at was fairly new so everyone got a say in how the store worked. They value your opinions and always take your word over the customer's. All my coworkers felt like family to me. They were the reason I looked forward to coming into work everyday. Scheduling was lenient and so was the attendance policy. Amazing training

Cons

The managers definitely choose favorite. If you're not in their clique you have little to no chance of moving into a different position. The managers act to much like friends to everyone. They go out for drinks and get high with the people they favor. 98% of people were pot heads and smelled like weed or were high while they were at work. Some managers would try to micro-manage I thought they paid well up until I realized how much work was being piled on us. At first I thought their values and what we were taught were awesome but then I realized we Were like minions You constantly have to train on irrelevant stuff. It's like going to school

Pros

We work with geniuses - in every department, We create innovative products that thrill our customers and create new product categories - who else can say that?

Cons

ZERO ZERO ZERO work/life balance. Execs have been saying for YEARS that they understand and will make it better. But in actuality, it gets worse every year! It is obviously top management LIP SERVICE because if they meant it, they could fix it tomorrow. They have hundreds of BILLIONS in the bank. If they REALLY cared about employee work/life balance, they could bring aboard the right number of folks to make that issue dissolve. Sick of hearing the lies. Just don't lie about wanting to fix it, when they clearly DON'T care
