Vantaggi
I have been working for JCPenney for 4 years now and for the most part I love it. If you are a student they will work with your class schedule which has been a plus. I have transferred between three different jcpenney stores and they all will have at least one manager that likes to micro manage which isn't fun but for the most part management is very nice and supportive. The pay is okay if you don't have a lot of bills, are student or if its just a part time job for you but if its not then you may not be able make ends meet. They usually keep people at part time so no full time hours here. you make a 2 dollar commission on every credit application you complete which gives good incentives.
Svantaggi
Personal growth takes years. Most people do not become managers until they have been working as an associate for a while unless you have a degree. If you close you have to stay over until the store is clean.
