Pros

Working for Hugo Boss had some great perks about. We were never micro managed or watched under a microscope on anything and we had a fair amount of freedom at work. For example, If you wanted to step out of the store for a few minutes it was almost always possible to do so. Since sales associates operate on a commission only basis (originally 9% but now 8.5%), most managers expect for the associates to produce on their own.

Cons

The work expectancy is not at all equal. Be prepared for double standards and favoritism when it comes to anything to do with tasks that are unrelated to selling. At my store certain individuals were never asked to help with stock, merchandising, or anything other then selling because they were "not capable". This added to frustration and dissatisfaction among those who were required to carry out tasks unrelated to selling. Hugo Boss is also not the most organized company and management definitely keeps secrets from employees.
