Pros

Working at H&M is fun and you are constantly active, which I LOVE. Customers are of the younger generations. You get to have as many tattoos/peircings you'd like, which is great. Very close knit team... you all know about one another. Like a little family.

Cons

They (atleast mine) became very mad over me requesting a day off, or calling in sick. Rarely ever happened. But when it did, it wasn't understood at all. I mean, when you've got either food poisoning or the flu, you can't just go into work unless they're okay with you running to the bathroom every ten minutes. They didn't seem to understand that. They almost over-encourage "different" people, so you feel like a total odd ball if you don't look or act "different." They hire these people to the point that they aren't really looking for good employees... they just want to "look good." I wish they had an employee site as well... if I didn't work to be able to see my schedule, I'd have to physically drive 45 minutes to check it, or call somebody and hope they can stop what they're doing to be able to tell you days/times you're working.

Pros

Benefits even for part-timers is a huge win! Sick leave, vacation, and community days. Nice management and really friendly coworkers. Decent employee discount. Diverse and welcoming environment.

Cons

Very stressful work environment considering the low pay. Poorly managed and operated. They clearly try to run lean and do as much work with as few people as possible. Very unprofessional overall and a lot of greenwashing.
