Pros

pays better than many other retail stores. full benefits for full-time employees or salary positions. very nice coworkers. they work with your hours if you are a part time employee and full time student.

Cons

they don't appreciate your hard work and your teamwork. they make you work as if you are two employees and not only one! Management has favorites and treat employees very unfair. They try to be as cheap as possible when it comes to employees because its a growing company. We where lacking even lunchroom at many times in order for stock people to process their shipment. their expectations are all the way to the roof and at the same time they are not very clear with what they expect from people. There is usually misunderstanding between managers and they usually would reflect it very negatively on their employees. if you are a salary position forget about having a life. they would change schedules last minute and always expect you to do as they wish.

Pros

My coworkers and Managers felt like a family I felt supported and was able to make good connections At the time I was there my managers made it feel less daunting to ask questions or come to them if I had concerns about customers . I feel like if I stayed with Zara longer I would have been able to move within the company easily.

Cons

Air conditioning didn't work while I was there.
