Barnes & Noble
122 FIFTH AVE
NEW YORK, NY
Rating 4.13 out of 5 191 reviews
Entry Level Employee: I loved working at Barnes & Noble! I have worked in the Cafe, as a bookseller, in receiving, and even filling out educational orders and rare was a job I did not enjoy. I love books so being in an atmosphere surrounded by them all day made it rarely feel like work. The management was amazing, always ready to help and encourage you. Also, since B&N's new owner took over the changes have only been for the better. (Myrtle Beach Location - The Market Commons)...Read 191 Reviews

Foot Locker
330 WEST 34TH STREET
NEW YORK, NY
Rating 4.08 out of 5 71 reviews
Experienced Employee: Foot Locker accepted me the summer of 2020 to be a cashier. I work in a mall near Atlanta and I enjoy it so much. It is my first job and I am still working there currently. So far this job has taught me communication skills, how to deal with people and money. I believe there are a lot of connections I can make with this company, since my major is marketing sales. I enjoy working with my coworkers. I am making friends along the way. There is one thing that I have noticed about Foot Locker and that our store gets apparel and shoes in a little late. I believe it is because of the pandemic, but I am not sure. I do like how much Foot Locker gives back to the community a lot. Overall, I feel Foot Locker is a great company to be at...Read 71 Reviews

H&M
110 5TH AVE FLOOR 10
NEW YORK, NY
Rating 3.79 out of 5 81 reviews
Entry Level Employee: H&M is a great company to work for if you are part-time and looking for work as a college student as I am currently. For retail, the pay wage is great considering other retailers who pay crummy. H&M delivers affordable and cost-friendly clothing for all types of people from men's to even kids! Not many mall stores do this. And if they do, it's only available online. I am proud to say I work for such a great company...Read 81 Reviews

Coach
10 HUDSON YARDS
NEW YORK, NY
Rating 4.08 out of 5 24 reviews
Experienced Employee: I just started working at Coach at one of my local malls, and I have to say that this workplace provides great work experience for college students interested in Fashion. I am a Fashion Merchandising major myself, so Coach is right up my alley. Coach provides a competitive pay, and is generally flexible with hours which is perfect for a full-time student like myself. Although it is still retail so working on the weekends is required.Coach also gives bonuses on our paychecks called “teamshare” whenever our store meets the desired sales goal for the month. The employee discount is 65% ,which is really nice, and they have a tuition assistance program. There are benefits included as well. If you aspire to have a career in fashion, Coach is a great place to start!...Read 24 Reviews

Party City
80 GRASSLANDS ROAD
ELMSFORD, NY
Rating 3.81 out of 5 37 reviews
Entry Level Employee: I work as a retail associate at Party City. I enjoy the relationships I have with my co-workers, as well as my managers. Being that most people are parents, planning parties or preparing for holidays, most individuals come in with already a high level of stress. I'm proud of the people I work with for always having a positive attitude and aiming to help even in these frustrating situations. Being that I started as a temporary worker around Halloween, I'm happy to have stayed on with the company for the past 3 months. Staff is reduced dramatically and things definitely slow down after the rush of Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas, however, no Saturday will ever be boring at this store (birthday parties and balloon orders all day)! However, working at one of the busiest stores in South Florida, I'm sure daily operations are slightly different at each store. Overall, Party City has been my favorite part time customer service job and I'm happy to have stayed with the company...Read 37 Reviews

Aeropostale
112 WEST 34TH STREET
NEW YORK, NY
Rating 3.88 out of 5 41 reviews
Experienced Employee: I'm currently working in Aeropostale for almost a year now. I've been working since June but it would've been earlier from March except with this whole pandemic of COVID, it just stopped. One of my happy places to be is Aero with the team and customers as in friends as well. People who need help with sizes, to reach from a high level, get them a fitting room, translate if they can't speak a certain language that I'm there to help them in need. When I'm cash register, I offer the customers if they would like to smell any of our testers perfumes. The co-workers are the nicest people I've meet, make fun of one another, we look after each other and we all work as a teamwork. There is somedays when it's empty and try to get the customers attention. One change I would say is how do we to get other customers attention? Instead of standing there and wait until they come in with a greet and promos for Aero. One change can make a difference to others...Read 41 Reviews

Toys R Us
TOYS R US INC
WAYNE, NJ
Rating 3.86 out of 5 42 reviews
Experienced Employee: One of the best job experiences I've had. The management was friendly, very caring and efficient! The manager I had, not only treated us like employees, but was very intuitive and dearly. She kept up with every ones lives and paid well attention to all old, new and current employee needs. The building was a little outdated, but it never stopped the team from exceeding customer satisfaction. I also thought ToysRUs did an excellent job as whole, inventing special Saturdays in which children could come to ToysRUs and have fun at Events that would happen in the store. The Geoffrey Birthday Club was also a great idea! Altogether, this franchise really upheld their name and slogan "Come on let's play!"...Read 42 Reviews

Saks Fifth Avenue
12 EAST 49TH STREET
NEW YORK, NY
Rating 4 out of 5 12 reviews
Entry Level Employee: The job itself paid very well which created a sense of security. The management however leaves something to be deaired for. I came to work with pnuemonia for fear of being reprimanded if I were to call off. With that being said the management in contemporary, designer, and shoes were amazing. Being that I was in cosmetics, it was a sepearate entity and a completely different beast alltogether (different pay setup, hours, etc). A few things I was appreciative of while working there full-time were the perks (employee discount, paid time off, insurance), and the other employees who quickly grew to be like family. In the end I chose to go a different route and now freelance for Saks during makeup artistry events because the stress of the atmosphere was too much for being full-time...Read 12 Reviews

Bloomingdale's
1000 THIRD AVENUE
NEW YORK, NY
Rating 3.69 out of 5 26 reviews
Entry Level Employee: Working at Bloomingdale's was a very nice experience for me. Everyone was very collaborative and were always willing to help whenever you had a question about something. What I liked the most about working here was that management really demonstrated how much they appreciated us and made us feel like our hard work was worth it. Despite the hard-work that was required everyday, management always helped keep everything fun by making competitions, announcing giveaways or bringing food for all the employees. There was never a dull moment working here and I will always consider it as one of my most memorable jobs...Read 26 Reviews

Ralph Lauren
650 MADISON AVENUE

Rating 3.91 out of 5 22 reviews
Experienced Employee: My experience at Ralph Lauren these past three years has been more than great. The company, overall, is amazing when it comes to treating their employees as well as when it comes to treating its customers. Here, I have had the opportunity of polishing my customer service skills on the sales floor and at the registers as wells as improving my organizational skills when when it comes to working in the back of house. The company is always focusing on helping out each employee by growing them with knowledge and experience in every department. All this with the goal to create strong leaders. Thank you Ralph Lauren...Read 22 Reviews

The Children's Place
500 PLAZA DRIVE
SECAUCUS, NJ
Rating 3.86 out of 5 22 reviews
Entry Level Employee: I work as a free-lance stylist at TCP, so I get booked on a week to week basis. Perks of the job include an in-house fitness center, reimbursed lunches, and a near by bus stop with all-day service to the heart of Manhattan (great for meeting friends or going on a solo adventure after work). Down sides are inconsistent hours and a clique filled work environment, so often times only the bosses favorite employees get hired (some are favored for personality rather than quality of work). Another issue: because I'm free-lance, I don't receive any benefits or PTO. For taxes I file as self-employed, and despite being in a low income bracket (and being a college student) I still need to pay 15% in taxes. I'd recommend working here! It's just important to stay friendly and be part of the group, but avoid partaking in the daily drama at all costs...Read 22 Reviews

UNIQLO
31 W 34TH ST
NEW YORK, NY
Rating 3.48 out of 5 29 reviews
Experienced Employee: This company has its flaws like most. First off, the job is physically exhausting. I have worked there for two years. I started working there before it was opened. During the first year we had shipments of products everyday. Sometimes it would be over 100 boxes that I would physically need to carry and verify by myself. In addition, there were times I would have to deal with a situation that no one seemed to know how to resolve. ...As terrible as all that might seem. It has taught me very valuable lessons. For example, the issues that needed to be trouble shot have taught me to be creative and utilize my critical thinking skills. But, also I realized that I need to be more cautious and careful to not make any mistakes. Had I made any mistakes there would be consequences. Which in return, gave me learning opportunities. Overall the company provided me with many tools that I currently use to advance my skills...Read 29 Reviews

The workforce consisted mostly of college students, so everyone would get along great. The shifts are 4-5 hours, but you are on your feet the whole time. The employee discount was amazing because it is in addition to sales that are already present in the store...Read 12 Reviews
