Pros

Good entry-level retail job, especially for beginners. The work environment is generally positive, and scheduling can be flexible depending on store needs. It’s a solid place to gain retail experience, especially if you’re new to it. Employee discount is 75% in-store and 50% online, except for clearance.

Cons

Upper management tends to overlook smaller store issues, which may later develop into larger problems if not addressed early. There's also a strong customer-first approach that sometimes feels one-sided, in which difficult customers are often accommodated even when they're in the wrong. This can occasionally be frustrating for employees trying to enforce store policies. But hey, that's hospitality. It's still a good place nonetheless because of the store team.
