Pros

- of the multiple locations I worked for my positive experiences came from a couple of outstanding, inspiring, motivating and hard working SMs that try their hardest to perform well/produce results despite the lack of support from any upper management in the company - the customer base is absolutely amazing and make the job worthwhile to some extent - the company itself has an amazing mission and motive, this is just not reflected at all in the behavior of upper management

Cons

- working here as management causes an insurmountable amount of stress due to the lack of support from the DM - emails sent to the DM never get answered no matter how urgent, forced to just figure everything out on your own without any support - PT ASMs are expected to fulfill the exact same role as FT ASMs, typically working close to the same hours per week, however are paid significantly less - Employees are terrified to approach HR with their concerns because historically whenever this has been done the result is that no repercussions are brought on the DM or SM being accused of inappropriate behavior, but rather the reporting employee suffers being subject to aggressive, rude, confrontational backlash by that SM or DM

Pros

Fun cute clothes. Getring to meet fun customers and brighten their day by helping them feel good in what they wear. Meeting interesting coworkers and having fun at work.

Cons

<15/hr. For lead position. Expected to work on the floor, deal with customers, shipment, doordash, web orders and all retail clothing related things on your own for most of the day with no coverage. Management unable to properly hold associates accountable for inability to complete tasks leading to resentment and distrust of upper management. Lack of proper coverage most of the time as 119 labor hours was usually our max hours for all employees for the whole week. Lack of proper communication when it came to policy changes, work updates or expectations. Guilt trips when unable to work due to disabilities and pre existing conditions. Management lets crocodile tears of employees sway their judgements even though said associates always have a bad attitude and literally drive customers away.
