Nice environment with fun people
Merchandising Supervisor (Former Employee), Nashua, NH – May 27, 2013
Pros: flexible lunchtimes, could write my own task list for the day
Cons: no healthcare or vision, scheduling changed frequently
This place had awesome, friendly people to work with. No matter what kind of day I was having, someone always made me laugh. I was never short of tasks; I was kept very busy, which is a good thing to me. I always had support of my peers and management; I could always ask questions. The retail environment provided me a unique experience in the workforce. – more... I learned a great deal about communication and customer service. – less

Good workplace, fast paced days
Retail Sales Associate (Current Employee), Yorktown Heights, NY – April 17, 2013
My day would usually be spent on register or stocking shelves, and helping customers. I would run childrens activities on the weekends and also help with floral arranging and various other store crafts. Everyone was really nice, including my managers, and we all did the best we could to help out our customers and each other.

Productive, Steady work pace, Good employee relations.
A.C. Moore Store Associate (Current Employee), Voorhees, New Jersey – February 22, 2013
An average day of work at A.C. Moore consist of first breaking down the incoming truck. Then for the rest of the work day the entire crew works together to put all stock away in the appropriate places. On a non truck day the crew works on other tasks such as maintaining the store's neatness and making sure all shelves are stocked fully.

A fun working environment working with Arts and Crafts
Sales Associate (Former Employee), Hauppauge, NY – February 4, 2013
A typical day at A. C. Moore was mainly helping customer search for the items they need around the store. I was also trained to use a cash register, some custom framing. At the end of every night i had a scheduled maintenance before closing the store.

Easy-going job for a very young adult
Merchandising Supervisor (Former Employee), Egg Harbor Township, NJ – January 5, 2013
Pros: easy going
Cons: bad management, unprofessional, not much room for advancement, raises are .10 cents every 6 months
An okay place for a young adult to work if it is a first job just to get a check every two weeks.

A normal day at A.C. Moore
Sales Associate (Former Employee), Altoona, PA – December 15, 2012
On a normal basis I would switch between operating a cash register and assisting customers in fidning what the need or answering questions on products that the company sells. In between assisting customers and operating the cash register I would stock and arrange shelves.

Business minded company
Supervisor (Former Employee), MA – December 3, 2012
This is definitely a big boxed business minded company. There is really no care given to its employees, there is no appreciation for a job well done, no respect for fellow co-workers from the management and the home office has no way of knowing what management is doing in its stores. The benefits are minimal and the health coverage is a joke. Don't – more... get me wrong I know it is retail but I have worked in retail for years and I have never worked for a company like this one....most business care about their employees because they are the ones making money for them. – less

Cons: awful company heartless company.
This is an awful company. When I hired on my son was in a car accident and in icu. The HR department called me and stated they would need me to be 100 percent commietted to the company. My son died the following week and I never returned. What a heartless company.

needs beyter management and more clarity
na (Former Employee), altoona. pa – October 23, 2012
Pros: great environment if you are a crafter
Cons: discount is lousy now, management is just plain awful
What an awful place to work!
I was there for well over a year and don't know why. the pay is horrible, new hires get paid less than people who have been there for years, the management is grumpy and forgetful. they tell you to do one thing then the next week deny what they said and tell you something else. seems like a great deal of younger people who – more... have no clue what is going on work there.
With me, I had no one complain about the job I was doing. management never had anything negative to say about my work. one new nite later and I'm the devil who is not able to do my job correctly. – less

Fun Yet Challenging
Department Merchandiser (Current Employee), Wilmington, DE – October 16, 2012
Pros: employee discount, fun work environment, promotes creativity and ideas
Cons: short breaks, poor health coverage, low pay
Company lacks integrity; employees are encouraged to promote the company's values and policies, but will cave as soon as a customer makes a peep. I want a company to stand behind me when I enforce their own ideas and policies. Not enough hours or employees- the atmosphere is fun when there are enough employees to handle customer flow, but more often – more... than not each person is stretched between too many tasks. Not enough appreciation for their own employees either; in the past few years have downgraded the hourly associates' health insurance coverage, and lowered employee discount. Opportunity for advancement is hard to come by; company hires from outside rather than promote from within. – less

Fun, productive workplace with friendly coworkers.
Sales Associate (Former Employee), Clarksburg, WV – August 7, 2012
Pros: group would pay for pizza lunches. celebrated birthdays. etc.
Cons: the job got boring easily
Work was usually quiet. Most of the day I was either cleaning and straightening shelves or on cash register. Sundays were the worse. You would be amazed at how many people are rude on a supposed "holy day." Management was good, if there was an issue it was always resolved quickly. The hardest part of the jobs was rushing to get things done before close – more... and dealing with bad customers. But the end of the day was always enjoyable. My coworkers were always happy and we would joke and have fun. We always said goodbye and good night when we closed and made sure everyone got out of the parking lot safely. A.C. Moore was one of my more enjoyable jobs. – less
