Vantaggi
employee discount, opportunities to move up in the company
Svantaggi
Managers and upper management have no accountability (they are basically able to just make things up as they go along and write people up under the general term of "insubordination" for anything they want). There are a lot of opportunities because this is a new and growing company, but that has lead to unqualified people being promoted based on how popular they are rather than their actual abilities (as someone else said, it's the blind leading the blind). They play favorites and have little to no communication skills, so it feels like working in a big high school. I would work here to get myself through college and to gain retail experience, but then get out as fast as you can. I also really felt that none of the higher-ups care about their employees. The company culture seems to be "keep your head down and do what you're told," so if you have a problem or want to speak up, don't bother. My store had an issue with workplace bullying, which caused 4 employees to quit over the past year. I told higher-ups about the problem and submitted a letter to HR, but because that particular employee was a favorite with upper management they ignored the problem and didn't even bother to investigate. Totally made me lose my respect for the company.
