Ok place to work if you are single
Sales Associate (Former Employee), Philadelphia, PA – April 6, 2013
Pros: great employee discount
Cons: no benefits for part time employees
This company is ok for someone who has a lot of time on there hands. If you have other obligations that requires your full attention then this isn't for you. Prepare to have your work schedule adjusted frequently because your hours will be cut.

CEO is great but the rest of his team needs HELP
Store Manager (Former Employee), New York, NY – March 21, 2013
Worked for the company for many years and went no where. Regional manager of NYC had her favorites and looked out for them. She was also lying to her superiors and lying to the store managers. Very hostile environment even though they have Values to follow, the upper level management tends to ignore them. The company offers comfortable shoes but the – more... quality is going down and the prices are going up. If looking to work in this field, I urge you to check out the competition before apply to this company. – less

Gets worse and worse over time
Assistant manager (Former Employee), Corte Madera, Ca – February 24, 2013
Pros: 50% off shoes, friendly sellers
Cons: horrible upper management, illegal work
I used to enjoy working with this company until I got a better job and remembered how messed up Aerosoles is.
The store manager consistently works off the clock and gets upset and takes it personal if you don't. The district manager nor the regional manager are friendly to talk to and gives more dark stares at you oppose to constructive criticism then – more... walks around the store with their noses high in the air.
The CEO Jules is SUPPER nice, open, and seems like he really cares about every employee but each visit showed how fake the regional and district manager are infront of him. Once during an upper management visit (CEO wasn't there), I opened the store at 9:30 am and wasn't able to take a lunch until nearly 4pm. When I hinted to the regional Gina that I haven't taken a break yet, she tried to make me feel bad about not thinking about the customer.......HELLO I'm a human just like the customer is too!!!
Another time on a busy day, during my wrap in, the store manager casually threw in there that I won't be taking a lunch during my 8 hour shift. I can clock out and get my food but was only allowed to eat when it wasnt busy.I told her that I wasn't gonna give up my lunch and had to deal with her attitude all day.
The store manager Maria consistently goes into the KWI back office and not only changed her time sheet but also other employees in the store so she wouldn't get in trouble. I'm glad I'm out of there but my old coworkers tell me she still does it. ILLEGAL!!!!!!!
This company does have strong values that helped me develop but without a strong management team, it drives people out. I guess all I can say is stay out of NORCAL AEROSOLES!!!! Apparently by these other forums, they all have better luck. No wonder district 11 has terrible numbers!!! – less

Sales Associate (Former Employee), 154 Montague St – February 5, 2013
Everyday was a progression and I learned that you have to be dependable,reliable and very much into customer service. The management team was very loyal and motivating and kept me to my highest potential at work. My co workers was very liable and they taught the meaning of team work they taught me that if you stick together anything is possible. There – more... was no hardest part cause when you work hard everything else comes easy. I love coming to work working with such positive people with positive energy. – less

Fun place to work, but little room to progress within the company.
Sales Associate (Former Employee), New York, NY – September 23, 2012
A typical day at work consist of selling shoes, and greeting customers. One of the things that I've learned while working at Aerosoles is how much customer service matters. It is a very comfortable environment to work in as far as management/co-workers. The hardest part of the job is trying to get the most sales as possible, and reach a perspective – more... sale goal in a day. The most enjoyable part of this job are the people (customers and co-workers). – less

Discount on shoes, but high expectations
Store Manager (Former Employee), Napa, CA – September 17, 2012
You're expected to stalk customers around a tiny store until they are so annoyed with you they agree to buy a pair of shoes. You have to train all the employees to do the same. High expectations on sales.

Great workplace
Assistant Manager (Former Employee), Philadelphia, PA – June 26, 2012
Pros: discounts on shoes
Cons: being the last one out the store at night
I was an assistant manager I opened and closed the store most days. I handled cash and managed 1-3 employees at a time. My store was one of the smaller stores but the work was still intense never the less. The worst days were shippment days. I really like managing though.
