Productive work place. Great Management.
Customer Service and Admin Office (Former Employee), Vernon Hills, IL – May 21, 2013
Work started early in the morning for me. Depending on the day, after I punched in, I would go to the money office and start counting the safe and start the deposit and then put the money out on the registers. Or I would go to the registers and start checking people out. What I learned was to work in a fast pace but still take care of the customer. – more... Management is awesome. They are very understanding for schedules. My Co-workers were great to work with. Such teamwork. The hardest part of the job is just being on your feet your whole shift and only have a 15 minute break. That is if your not use to it. You'll get use to it though. And the most enjoyable was getting to meet plenty of people. – less

eh.
Sales Associate/ Cash Office (Former Employee), Chico, CA – May 21, 2013
Pros: good hours
Cons: short breaks, no pay increases, poor management.
Clock in, work work work. Clean , work, take a break, work work work. clock out.

My co workers were lovely.
Management sucked. And utilized many people to take the fall for poor management in the process.
The job was not very hard at all. Within so many months they moved me up to work in the cash office.

I loved the customer service part of my job, – more... having people leave with a smile on their faces, and when they come back they remembered me. – less

Productive workplace, nice conversations with customers, and fun times with co-workers
Sales Associate (Former Employee), Cincinnati, OH – May 20, 2013
Pros: paid every week and positive attitudes from co-workers and customers.
Cons: complaints and negative attitudes from co-workers. does not pay enough.
I really enjoyed working with this company and would recommend anyone who is looking for beginners who are willing to gain customer service experience. A typical day involved much engagement with the customers, including answering questions and assisting them to the right location in the store. I was also nice to give my own advice about a particular – more... merchandise when asked for my opinion. For the most part, I worked with co-workers with great work ethic. It was fun to work as a team and analyze how we would get the job done together by a certain time. When I completed my job I always asked my co-workers if they needed help in their department. I sometimes notice that my co-workers needed help and continued my work helping them without asking if they needed help first. I was very flexible and adaptable when the managers relocated me in a different work department, which was different then my scheduled work department. The hardest part of my job was probably dealing with unhappy customers and still maintaining a helpful, caring, calm, and content attitude. The most enjoyable part of the job was the engagement, interaction, and relationships I obtained with the frequent customers as well as new customers. – less

Consider the Supervision.
Exempt (Former Employee), MA – May 20, 2013
Pros: the store, district and regional support teams.
Cons: long, long list.
The National Task Force is the perfect position for those who do not have families and or responsibilities outside of work. There is an extreme expectation of open flexibility as it pertains to your availability (24/7). The training was amazing but depending on the Supervisor you are assigned to, you may never actually get to apply the skills you were – more... taught, or brought with you to the company. The more support you get from your field partners, the more road blocks you encounter with your own Supervisor as it pertains to growth within the company. Expectations are unclear. Supervisor creatively thinks of ways to prevent you from obtaining your stats, which is your primary responsibility. If you get the opportunity to work for the company Store Side, it will likely be one of the best jobs you have ever had!!! The company is ever growing and superior in just about every way to other retailers. However the NTF Supervisor has a political agenda which prevents them from being the true support the Stores need. – less

Good Summer Job
Sales Associate (Former Employee), Portage, MI – May 18, 2013
Pros: co-worker, flexible hours
Cons: short breaks, old vending, heating/cooling system
A typical day consist of working in the backroom sorting through new merchandise. I have learned a number of ways to avoid shrink(theft) and how to provide great customer service. Management was pretty standard orders were given to the and they gave them to us. I absolutely loved my co-workers they are the best part of the job. Even if you have nothing – more... in common it is a great place to meet new people and learn new things. The hardest part of the job was getting customers to sign up for the rewards card and the most enjoyable would have to the exact same thing. – less

Fine at time to work at, wage an hour went up a bit while working there
Cashier/Fitting Room (Former Employee), Egg Harbor Township, NJ – May 18, 2013
Doing cashier was OK but some days I would have liked to get more help back in the fitting room when it was very busy. Either low on employee could have played part, not sure. Store would get messy right after straightening up esp. in the clothes and underwear sections.

A fast paced retail store
Cashier (Former Employee), Bronx, NY – May 17, 2013
Pros: wonderful work environment
Cons: constant short-staffed work days
Go to work with prepared for a fast paced day in sales. They taught me to work the cash register, pick up clothes and other things in the designated areas. Management was some of the finest I've seen. Friendly, but constructive in criticism. A perfect meld of what a manager should be.
The hardest part of the job was the short-staffed days that happened – more... a plethora of days. For the fast pace in the store, a larger number of employees should definitely have been compromised.
I loved the people though, A wonderful work experience. – less
