Pros

Interesting culture of people, intelligent management structure, lots of good stuff to buy

Cons

1 personal and 3 sick days per year for full time. 1 week paid vacation maxing out at 3 weeks paid after 5 years. Not very good compared to most companies.

Pros

You don't experience many of the retail horror stories you would at larger chains. Management was reasonably flexible with scheduling and always took our side during customer disputes. 30% discount nice bonus too (40% on some days)

Cons

None that I can think of

Pros

it is a decent overall gap job, you will be doing every role in the store and if it is dead you will be expected to multitask up front.

Cons

some of the management could be harsh on employees
