I met some great people while working here. The culture is how you, your colleagues, and leadership team make it. I got to know people outside the workplace, and that helped us build a better and collaborative environment at work. I even met my now fiancé, and I couldn't be happier. Also, the discount you get is pretty good.
The rude and entitled customers, that comes with working retail. Also, having to pick up the slack of others because they're not as passionate or hardworking as you are.
Leadership can be a hit or miss because of the character and length of time people have worked for the company can really change a person.
Take time to really get to know your employees and get opinions from them. They have a lot to offer.

When I interviewed, I first had a screening interview with the store lead. After that was completed, I had an in-person interview with the store manager that maybe took 30 minutes.

Very laid back, almost too laid back. Nothing serious. Wore a suit, but felt casual was alright. I don't think the questions were too difficult; they mainly asked scenario and personality questions.

Very easy, basic interview with the store manager. The manager was very friendly and didn't just focus on sales questions, but also talked about our cultures, etc. He hired me on the spot, I signed the required documents, and I was good to go.
