Pros

Great training, co-workers generally knowledgeable and helpful. Beautiful surroundings, great atmosphere to work in. Wonderful place to express your creativity. Great benefits for retail industry. Unfortunately, store division closed operations spring 2009.

Cons

Management sometimes backpedaled on decisions and wouldn't communicate to associates about these--found out only through the grapevine.

Pros

Individual effort is appreciated. Gender bias seems to not be an issue, at least in my store.

Cons

Pay is too low, and too many floor assiciates are just taking up space, not putting in any real effort.
