Pros

Good pay and benefits, easy to accrue paid time off, you are never bored, always something to do

Cons

Staff levels are horrible. You have no team to manage. Most of the time you are doing double the work, as a retail assistant and manager. The job can be stressful at times due to the lack of staff and time allotted to get things done

Pros

Cheap clothes, thats all. There is nothing good about this company

Cons

very unorganized and unprofessional. No employee discount. You will be picking up clothes the whole day since the company has the cheapest cloth and people would buy till they wash the cloth. Then they will bring it right back because it's all fake.
