Svantaggi
- Communication from corporate is inefficient and often contradictory—instructions from managers can change drastically from month to month as they test out different strategies. - Compensation is mostly based on commission, and therefore seasonal and irregular. Spring and Summer are slow shopping seasons, and your paycheck will reflect that. - The work schedule is erratic and random. Do not expect regular hours. Sometimes you won't get your schedule for the week until two days before the week starts. It's difficult to schedule a lifestyle around such a schedule. Expect to perform a "Clopen" a few times—that's when you work a closing shift until late at night, and then have to get up early the next morning to open the store. (Close + Open = Clopen)
