Pros

Met some good people and the prices are awesome!

Cons

Schedules are posted on Friday afternoon for the next week, no work life balance. No yearly review process in place corporate wide, lack of professionalism from upper management in their daily interactions with staff.

Pros

Ok pay if you are desperate for money.

Cons

Managers treat you like slaves, they don't respect you and they act like they appreciate your work only because they are so thick that they beleive that you will think to yourself wow I'm getting praised let me carry on doing their crappy jobs and working under pressure. It's pathetic and customers are disgusting and terrible and report you for brainless reasons and the managers do not want to protect you or be on your side. They always put the customer first when the customers is wrong 99.9% of the time.

Pros

The managers at least in the shoe department were nice and made work enjoyable It was fast pace

Cons

the place is big and busy so some employees hide or go somewhere else to avoid their department Not sure now but the people in P&C (a version of HR) were not easy to talk to. They had an open office, some people there were welcoming others made seem like it was best to not be seen by them.
