I loved the management in this place. Great place to build retail and customer service skills! The clothes were equality at the time of my employment, and there were ample ways to earn prizes. My coworkers were a pleasure to work with. Cons: Lots of work for low hourly wages. This wouldn’t be an issue if the company paid more

Pros and Cons
friendly workspace, manager support
Lots of work for low pay

do they give job training?
avatar-of-creator
A year ago
When I first received cashier training, it was on a Sunday before open & I didn't actually touch the registers for almost two months after & had essentially forgotten everything & had to keep calling a manager to assist me when I was ringing up customer :)
avatar-of-creator
A year ago
Training was very quick & too short. They just show you online videos & slideshows. The videos only show you the basics about clothes & how to interact with customers, but they do not show you the basic functions of how to use a cash register 🤩
