Pros

Great brand and products, distinctive culture, and amazing stores.

Cons

Employees at office are quite laid back. Half of the office is most of the time empty. Caught a few times employees hang out at lounge chatting and playing with phones during office hours, sometimes shopping online at work desk. Support requests from retail stores always encounter push back and delay.

Pros

Employee discount, very low income , flexible schedule,

Cons

I worked there for two years, and in December last year I was informed the store would close, which left me with no option but to resign on the same day due to the need to cover my rent. Strangely, the next day the same decision-maker announced that the store would remain open and that a new store manager would be appointed, a plan that has still not materialized after seven months. In the interim, the store has operated with interim managers and a reduced staff, while pay remains low and the culture has deteriorated, leading to ongoing turnover and a perception of practices that are not consistent with fair and respectful treatment of employees.
