Pros

There is a highly skilled sales staff which stands out above other stores that I have managed. The sales associates have a long tenure and are truly professional. There is an attitude of respect from the upper management that is also not at every retailer. You are valued as a person and your ideas are listened to and are respected.

Cons

This is a lux market and very different than any other retail inviroment. Some promotions that would be effective at other price points are not effective for this market. This client base is not interested in discounts but rather the service and attention to detail that they receive as a client. The market share is very thin and needs to be expanded.

Pros

* If you have an amazing team and management the day goes by fast. * Commission. * Easy to rely on foot traffic to meet goals. * If you ask for growth, they set thing ups that align with what you want, you just need to ask.

Cons

* If its slow, its SLOW. * There can be drama, it just depends on the department you're in.

Pros

good pay, good retired tech/fashion prop sales, hour long lunches

Cons

terrible work environment with whole bunch of eating disorder talk and projection at models (even from some management), management makes everyone stay until 4:30 even when all the minimum work requirement (and oftentimes more) is done, they will write you up for something extremely small then dismiss a big thing from another employee, terrible communication between managers therefore terrible communication to employees, employees get publicly ridiculed when they're just asking questions even amidst the terrible communication issues that are already there,
