Pros

Slow pace a lot of free time.

Cons

Low paying job for an assistant manager position. A lot of locations including the location that I work at are NOT diverse, all white I was the only hispanic American working there. Store Manager did everything when it came to operational and visual aspects of the store which was very annoying because I was the Assistant Manager but I felt like I was an associate with an "ABM" title. With previous experience in retail management and working full time in those positions I’ve always gotten 40hrs but with Francesca’s I was only getting 30-34hrs. The SM was very close to some of the associates in the store and constantly talked bad/gossiped about the other people working there. Dress code is NO JEANS, dresses, skirts (knee length) or colored pants. I feel like for the brand the dress code was ridiculous. There is no room for growing with the company. Because this company is still growing a lot of their practices are very “old school” overall if you want to be an associate it’s a great part time job but if you are looking for an assistant manager position I wouldn’t recommend it.

Pros

Flexibility, great community, growth opportunities, supportive executives

Cons

Nothing about the business. Liquidation and closure of the brand was one of the hardest things I've ever had to do.
