Pros

Working for this company is truly about giving back to the community and doing everything possible for your customers! I love how each store gets to create their own displays and color stories! We truly get to speak to our customers with visuals not just our voice! I had the honor to meet some of the buyers and the CEO, and I could not respect them anymore! They truly are there to give you advice and work hands on with you! The CEO takes his time to let his employees know he appraicates everything they do! He called our store after closing one night just to thank us for doing what we do! I have never worked for a retail company where the CEO is this involved! It really lets you know this is an AMAZING company to work for!

Cons

The only challenge was markdowns, but they have fixed this issue with new markdown scanners!

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.
