      I worked at J. Crew part-time for less than a year

      Pros

      The brand is cool and every sales associate will get free outfits for work. It was a good place to work part time while studying.

      Cons

      Working hours were not great, the store closes at 8pm but the last shift has two hours of folding to do afterwards.

      I worked at J. Crew part-time for more than a year

      Pros

      Great atmosphere. Informative meetings about seasonal trends and company updates. Brilliant discounts for employees. Supportive management (oftentimes they brought snacks to share).

      Cons

      Hectic schedule for part-time employees. No pay for on-call days. Cut hours due to slow sales days. Quality depreciation made it more challenging for customers to buy/keep the merchandise and harder to hit sales goals.

    3. "Top Notch Store Director"

      Current Employee - Retail Sales Associate in Round Rock, TX
      Recommends
      Positive Outlook

      I have been working at J. Crew part-time for less than a year

      Pros

      Great part time position with flexible hours and generous employee discount. Wonderful team to work with because of the leadership. The Store Director for Round Rock is a seasoned leader, ethical and transparent. She has a proven track record of hiring the right people that share the same qualities.

      Cons

      Please introduce a variety of women’s petite clothing options at the store.

      Advice to Management

      Keep up the great work Sarah! Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to be part of the J.Crew team during the 2019 holiday season!

      I worked at J. Crew part-time for less than a year

      Pros

      Working with great people, ability to work independently but ask for help when needed. Learned many sales and retail skills in a short amount of time.

      Cons

      Short lunch breaks. I think it's standard for part time though.

      Pros

      Very friendly, light and supportive atmosphere. Higher level manager respect to the employees and between the same level employees. No pressure. Flexible work hours.

      Cons

      Minimum hour rate pay, as a part time employee - no social benefits

      I worked at J. Crew part-time for more than 3 years

      Pros

      Wonderful co-workers, decent pay, good discounts, great part-time college job. I got lots of experience working in visuals which is what I wanted to pursue.

      Cons

      Not many down sides. Could maybe pay more but other than that the worst part was any crazy customers which comes with any retail job.

      Advice to Management

      Create more visual merchandising opportunities!

      "Don’t work here unless you’re a college kid"

      StarStarStarStarStar
       

      I worked at J. Crew

      Pros

      A discount on the product sold (Note: sometimes doesn’t apply or in the end you ultimately pay less as a customer)

      Cons

      No benefits of any kind for part time associates, no paid time off, no work life balance (if you have open availability prepare to work every weekend and holiday, no exceptions) , and no clear path for advancement

      Advice to Management

      Don’t expect associates to respect you when you only act professional when the store director or other higher ups are around- we’re really not as stupid as you think we are. Pay attention to schedules. When you have the same 4 people closing every night of a holiday weekend they are going to burn out. When you hire someone off the street, and you pay them $2-$4 more an hour than the previously mentioned burnt out employees, everyone knows about. I know you tell everyone we’re not allowed to talk about salaries, but we do. Just like how you’re not allowed to sit in the office and do nothing when you’re closing but you do.
