Petty management and underpaid - Sales Associate Victoria's Secret Employee Review

I have worked for this company for over a year now, and I have been treated like a disposable, invaluable employee. Corporate has been testing a new scheduling policy on my current store and I got demoted from a core part-time associate to a flex part-time associate, when there are other girls that have been there 2-3 months and got promoted to core associates. Pay is awful for the late hours we are required to work. Sometimes we stay closing the store until 1 or 2 am in the morning. Management complains about being understaffed and hires new, unreliable employees when most of the long term associates beg for more hours. Call-ins are ridiculous, they expect you to wait around to call them and see if they need you to work. Most of the time I am answered with an unsure "I'll call you back if I need you", leaving me to wait around and waste my entire day. Also, if you are hired as a part-time associate like myself, be prepared to live off of $86 paychecks every two weeks. Since the testing from corporate they schedule me for one 4 hour shift every two weeks and its always a closing shift. Don't expect any kind of praise or reward for making selling goals. The management also get bonuses each launch goal the sales associates make.
