Pros

Young office in good area

Cons

Most days in office from around 9a-8p, overworked and underpaid with no overtime benefit No training structure Very few women or POC in leadership roles Promise travel and training in Europe (which I would have loved) then never sent me in almost 3 years there Going to HR with issues does nothing except hurt you Even made employees pay for coffee haha

Pros

Pay, some co-workers, give aways.

Cons

Worst Sr. Management, No plan, Manager was too busy kissing his bosses butt. Don't trust people w/years experience in retail and consumer goods in US. Boss too busy w/double standards. Some work from home, others can't? Not worth the hassle of working there. Work life? Right. Run the other way.

Pros

Good pay Can get extra hours easily

Cons

Management is horrendous, full of bullies who try and throw their weight around Not enough time to get jobs done properly They do not care about you in the slightest Pick and choose who they want to enforce the rules with Managers sit back and do nothing while customer assistants run the store.
