[QUOTE="eekysign, post: 261436, member: 6479"] The only retail company I've heard of being kind is Hot Topic (roomie works for them). I've been way impressed with how they handle everything. At least around here, they're great about scheduling---she was VERY sick a while back, out for two months, MANY docs appts when she got back. No hassle, paid everything they were supposed to pay, seamless entry back into her old job when she came back (and they let her "ease" back into it with half-days and such). I can't think of any real problems she's had with them, and she's worked there for years and years. The pay ain't great (ah, retail), but they do a lot with incentives that you don't HAVE to aim for, but get if you do well, and little perks like reimbursement for keeping up with modern music by going to concerts, intra-district contests sales contests for bragging rights, etc. They are also told on no uncertain terms that if they get any hassles from their medical insurance, to contact the national HR division, who will help pressure the insurance people to get their act together. I wish MY non-retail company was as good to their employees. [/QUOTE]
