Pros

cute clothes. 40% discount, but the prices are way too high to afford anything wth what they pay.

Cons

this company only cares about the money. During this coronavirus craziness, they furloughed all of us without any kind of pay. Although I am certain that upper management is making due just fine. The company is doing very well financially-- very disappointing to see how little they actually care. The atmosphere is so petty. Super sharky and no morale. Everyone is fighting for the sale when there's 5 sellers on the floor. Makes things super tense and uncomfortable. Don't even get me started on the pay. You start a VERY low hourly and the commission is VERY minimal as well. Crazy strict rules-- like not ever crossing your arms, no leaning. Literally corporate would watch the cameras and call us to call one person out for LEANING against a counter durning an 8 hour shift. Unbelievable. I knew they thought we were expendable, but then this happened with Coronavirus and we REALLLYYY saw their true colors. Will not be returning after this all blows over and recommend you look elsewhere for work.

Pros

Cool brand, or at least it used to be.

Cons

New CEO, new investors, both have no clue what they are doing. They have driven out the original owners and anyone who is cool will follow. Most toxic environement i have ever seen. Everyone is backstabbing, new ceo is clueless and has no control whatsoever.

Pros

Coworkers are cool and young. 40-50% discount, summer Friday lunches

Cons

Upper management are awful! The owner of the company doesn't treat her employees like human beings. Be prepared to be yelled at on a daily basis. They try to keep the environment fearful. Unreasonabke amount of work. No work life balance. Be ready to do the work of 3 people on less than competitive pay. It's a dog eat dog environment. You'll be thrown under the bus in a heartbeat. They don't have a good reputation in the retail world. Their company won't be around in the next couple of years.
