Pros

The new hires I met during group training were kind and supportive. Most of them left the company within a few weeks/months, which speaks volumes.

Cons

This was, without question, the most toxic and poorly managed environment I’ve ever worked in. Management was unqualified, emotionally volatile, and obsessively micromanaging, creating a culture of fear and chaos. Worst of all, they had no issue straight-up lying to employees, whether about policies, expectations, or scheduling. Coworkers only added to the dysfunction: constant gossip, backstabbing, and non-stop complaining. There was zero accountability, no clear structure, and absolutely no support for development or well-being. If you value honesty, professionalism, or even basic respect in the workplace, I strongly recommend staying far away.

Pros

* If you have an amazing team and management the day goes by fast. * Commission. * Easy to rely on foot traffic to meet goals. * If you ask for growth, they set thing ups that align with what you want, you just need to ask.

Cons

* If its slow, its SLOW. * There can be drama, it just depends on the department you're in.

Pros

good pay, good retired tech/fashion prop sales, hour long lunches

Cons

terrible work environment with whole bunch of eating disorder talk and projection at models (even from some management), management makes everyone stay until 4:30 even when all the minimum work requirement (and oftentimes more) is done, they will write you up for something extremely small then dismiss a big thing from another employee, terrible communication between managers therefore terrible communication to employees, employees get publicly ridiculed when they're just asking questions even amidst the terrible communication issues that are already there,
