Pros

Many opportunities are offered. Many chances to travel to store openings all over the world. People listen to your ideas and you are very respected. You are given many responsibilities and therefore, H&M gives you a chance to grow in your career.

Cons

When you are a manager, therefore exempt, you are expected to work long hours (I have worked a 23.5 hour day!) especially during store openings, with little or no time off. The salaries are not very competitive but the vacation times are acceptable. (3 weeks after 3 years)

Pros

can accrue sick hours / vacation easy going staff once you get the hang of a routine, it's easy

Cons

managers could either be nitpicky, or don't help at all company management was even pickier i worked there for four years; by the time i left, the company had changed so many policies that did not make it easier for the worker work/life balance was hard, especially during holidays or summer
