Pros
Great benefits up front. Good insurance, tons of sick time, PTO. The fufilling joy you personally get from helping brides is so nice. A very girls-girl world. Cute work environment. Sorta casual wear? Very mainstream brand. The most warm bridal shoppe you can work for. The company is new so there's not too many rules (but that's a con too) If you're young and just need part time work- go right ahead but read the cons before you commit. Discount at store and atlar'd state. Good learning experiences.
Cons
You are locked in. Even when you're off- you're always on call to come in. Requests off are requests- but the business will always come first. Even if its a funeral, a ticketed event, a birthday; vow'd is your commitment. They allow brides to book hours before a time slot and the company looks to management to find coverage for their appointment. Stores NEVER have enough staff. They hire in relation to the exact number of brides the store can host. Every win you have- is not enough. A store can be 30% above goal, and its always questioned why its not 100% more. YOU WILL HAVE ZERO TRAINING. I was hired on, and thrown in, and am having negative conversations and warnings two weeks in. Associates beg for training but there's no time to teach anyone because brides are booked backtoback. You do not get breaks. Not to eat or even potty- for your entire shift. The store's alloted hours are so low and cant support the business with the staff. The pay structure is wildly vast. ASK FOR YOUR WAGE and they will meet you- if you don't you're getting minimum. I see that every associate is paid worldly different when i submit payroll- its so sad. This isn't just my store its a company thing unless you're their knoxville location.
