Vantaggi
Flexibly with this company is AMAZING! It's been quite a few years but I've had some of my fondest experiences with this company. My experience with this company, I have ALWAYS felt valued as an asset to the company which is of the most importance to me for any company. When I got accepted to my University and had to relocate they worked with me so that I was able to transfer to another store smoothly and continue work part time while attending school. There was opportunity to grow via promotion with Penney I've witness many entry level employees get promoted to manager and I believe had I stayed in retail I too would have been promoted in fact I believe thru my network with the company I can walk in my old store today and walk out with a management position if I wanted. I really appreciated my time with J.C. Penney they always supported me,
Svantaggi
One common con within the retail industry are the hours and J.C. Penney is no different. You will have to work on weekends and holidays. There were times when I worked all day Saturday, Sunday and ever some major holidays. That is just the nature of the industry there unusually is some sort of promotion on holidays and weekend which calls for more work hours.
