American Eagle Outfitters Reviews

What is it like working at American Eagle Outfitters?

The Best.
Ambassador in Victor:
Pros: I love the environment. All of the employees are so kind and it is an amazing working environment
Cons: Pay
It can be very rewarding and fun, yet also stressful and exhausting.
Retail Store Assistant Manager in Springfield:
Pros: I love the clothing and being able to do my own thing. I am in a way my own boss and have a great relationship with my immediate supervisor.
Cons: Sometimes the atmosphere of the store can be stressful. And if there are any issues with coworkers management doesn’t really do anything about it.
Fairly stressful job. Rewarding and fun.
Sales Associate in Jackson:
Pros: I love the free atmosphere!
Cons: The pay! Managers or/and LOD’s treating sales associates like minions
Be careful.
Staffing Manager in Baltimore:
Pros: The discounts
Cons: Management is unfair and sneaky
I love it.
Shipping & Receiving Lead in Colorado Springs:
Pros: The team that I had 173 was encouraging and put you first
Cons: Poor planning and disregard for the hard work put out
Thankless.
Retail Store Manager in Mansfield:
Pros: People
Cons: Pay and varying schedule
Assistant Manager.
Retail Store Assistant Manager:
Pros: Positive work environment IF you are lucky enough to be in a store with a decent manager.
Cons: Overworked, understaffed, and the execution of new directives never follows through as planned or at all. Pay for our entry level sales associates is bare minimum regardless if other retail stores are paying 3 to 4 dollars more per hour for half as much expectations. Expect to have half a gillion tasks to complete by last week with 20 gillion more tasks to do each day. It is VERY rare to have enough time to focus on any one task to ensure proper completion. Training of staff and fellow managers is sporadic even though there is a set standard and procedure to develop staff. Reason given from upper management for our low pay is that we pay in a positive work environment. Too bad that a positive work environment does NOT pay the bills!
