Pros
Very good work-life balance, discount for clothes, low stress. Good 401K and insurance. Friendly coworkers.
Cons
Old fashioned HR; meaning lower pay, lower bonuses, no stock, no stocked kitchens, catered lunches, no dogs at the office, minimal commuter stipend (Orca card), no scholarships for further education etc. Very typical corporate.

Decent base pay, somewhat autonomous, great tip potential.
Cons
The company has changed for the worse since COVID. When I came back the mood of the entire store had shifted. Gone were the days of comradery, customer focus, and taking pride in a job well done. In its place there is a new culture of cutthroat sales, a severe decline in customer focus, and worst of all a new focus on profit over customer satisfaction. When I was told that the amount the store charged for a shoe shine was not enough to do the best job I could for a customer I knew things had gone downhill for the company. Not to mention I watch a manager prey on a mentally disabled person in order to secure a sale, when the person could not understand what was being offered. Sad that such a once great company is now just another greed ridden corporation.
