Business outlook
Pros
I loved working at J. Crew as a seasonal employee. My managers increasingly gave me more autonomy and responsibility as the years progressed, and my hard work was rewarded with a raise and consistent schedule (even during times when store hours were low). Because of J. Crew, I learned how to provide excellent customer service and maneuver tough situations with difficult customers.
Cons
In my store, there was definitely an employee hierarchy. Some employees, like myself, received many hours per week, while others rarely got scheduled to work. It is tough for new hires to prove themselves because they typically work approximately one shift per week.
