What I liked
I loved working at Express for over two years, including developing my communication and customer service skills. There is a huge customer-focused attitude at this company and that is very important to me.
What I wish was different
I wish there was more of a better work ethic from some of the other associates, from the perspective of a manager.
Advice
I would say that you have to go into any retail job with an open mind and not expect it to just be an easy job. You have to have very good communication skills and a strong work ethic.
