Complete waste of time.
Lead Stock (Former Employee), Broomfield, CO –
Pros: discount, ability to really stand out if you actually work
Cons: poor management, never ending theft
Either the management is under-trained or they get fired for theft. The environment is lax...too lax for me, but it made it easy to pick up extra shifts because half of the 200 people on payroll don't even show up. Another good part was the great practice on loss prevention because every other person that worked there stole. A good first job I would – more...  say. – less

It's what you make of it
Impact Associate (Current Employee), Palmdale, CA –
Pros: great people.
Cons: no hours available.
Typical day at work isn't too hard at all. Once you've gotten into the swing of things, it comes natural. Restocking shelves, making sure we have enough of this and that, doing stock checks for those items we may not have outside and every now and again, changing the entire store look for different seasons.

There wasn't much to learn, honestly. Teamwork – more...  is really crucial, a lot of the work that is done there needs someone else to participate or to make it all come together. The co-workers are bubbly, which is awesome. No bad blood, great people to work around and the managers are great to, very down to earth. Always willing to answer a question and discipline you if necessary.

Enjoyable part? Leaving. Haha. After a while, the repeat soundtracks that are being played get on your nerves so peace and quiet is welcome after a shift. – less

A high school job
Stock (Former Employee), ‘Aiea, HI –
Pros: discount off merchandise
Cons: management was always changing, no raises in hourly pay, no advancement
Management was always changing, most employees only had one shift; which was five hours. Most of us had other jobs with steady incomes, so we kept the job only for a discount.

Sales associate (Former Employee), Montgomeryville, PA –
Pros: lots of folding.

I folded clothes, spoke to customers (usually mothers trying to help their daughters find clothes from the online shop), and folded more clothes at closing time.

Fun people to work with but requires a lot of time.
Assistant Manager (Current Employee), PA –
This job enables you to wear jeans and flip flops to work and have fun with the people you work with. However, it requires a lot of time outside of work and long work days.

Decent company making helpful products.
Quality Engineer-SPC Certification and FDA (Former Employee), Stuarts Draft, VA –
Pros: good benefits, interesting products.
Cons: terrible personell management expectations.
The people were dedicated workers and friendly.

The most enjoyable part of the jobs was helping to reduce issues with product components which made others jobs easier by using statistics, reliabilty, engineering techniques along with analytical problem solving.

The hardest part of the job was being personally reponsible as a Quality Engineer to Manufacturing – more...  and Quality management for performance reviews. This is frowned upon by all of the most noteable Management and Quality Gurus for a good reason. It does not work. – less

Hollister Model
Model (Former Employee), Hicksville, NY –
Pros: coworkers were around my age
Cons: boring
I worked as a model for Hollister. Being that Hollister does not support commercial advertisements, their in-store models and salespeople are the image of the store and the brand. I was responsible for the dressing rooms, the register, and keeping the rooms very organized and neat looking. I learned a lot about the cycles of clothing and how a clean – more...  and organized image in a store makes the merchandise look at its best. – less

Productive and fun workplace
Sales Associate & Impact Worker (Former Employee), Paramus, NJ –
A typical day working at Hollister & Co. consisted of folding clothes in the appropriate manner and placing them on the correct table, replenishing the floor as clothes were being sold, dressing the mannequins, replenishing the stockroom with new shipments, providing friendly customer service, and occasionally working the register. I learned what an – more...  impact customers have on the layout of the floor in terms of where merchandise is placed; popular merchandise is placed in more visible and accessible areas verses the less-popular merchandise. I also learned how important it is to reach a certain number of sales per day. Management was friendly and organized. I enjoyed my co-workers, as most of them were my age so we had a lot in common in terms of discussing college and career paths. The hardest part about my job was dealing with merchandise being stolen because as much as I (and my co-workers) kept a close eye on the customers, items still managed to be stolen. The most enjoyable part about my job was dealing with clothes. I have a passion for clothing so it excited me to be able to handle them and see the new merchandise come in. – less
