Pros

Great Work Environment Associate Appreciation Successful brands (rewarding) Great learning experience Great management Full time associates have amazing benefits package, growth opportunities, and many other perks

Cons

Keep freelancers for YEARS without awarding them company discount or benefits Long hours with no overtime and no paid personal days, sick days or holidays for freelancers Freelancers do not have the same growth opportunities as full time associates but sometimes have the same or more daily responsibilities. Sometimes freelancers have even been managers of a department for YEARS before being hired full time. This is a multi-billion-dollar company - they should be able to hire their long-term freelancers. Very political - be careful who you trust and how you interact with others.

Pros

If you are smart and willing to do whatever it takes, you will get promoted. If you find the right mentor, your development will be a priority. If you love retail, this is the place for you.

Cons

Hope you get lucky with your manager and director and VP because if you end up in the wrong department on the wrong category, the environment is toxic.
