If you are looking for employment here take my advice and look elsewhere. The head hancho there is Nothing but a greedy, self centered, @@@@@@@. I worked here for years and when I found a different job I did it the right way I gave my 2 week notice and Actually worked a day longer than I was supposed to. But when the new job didn't work out and I applied for the same position I left from. He would not hire me back. I was never wrote up. I never called in. And I always did my work. They start you out at minimum wage. And in the 5 years I worked here I had 1 raise and my job duties had tripled. Mr. Hancho wants the title with corporate that his store makes the most money. And that wouldn't happen if he paid his employees a decent wage. He cares Nothing about his employees. To him they are all replaceable. He has no respect for anyone below him. NONE. He has lost several good employees besides me because of the way he treats people. No body can live on $8/hour and you can't tell me they can't afford it the way they RIP people off. 

If you don't want to be disrespected or be paid like a 5 year old done the job then look elsewhere do not waste your time.

At first I had really enjoyed the job. I worked as a cashier for a month or two before people started quitting  left and right. Then I was assigned to the clothing department where I wasn’t given any help as to what I was supposed to do nor was there other people in the department. I worked full time and from 8 am to 4 pm I was the only one working that department. I had to walk it, keep in sight of the dressing rooms (which were in the middle) straighten clothes, make sure the area was clean, and walk freight to and from the back of the store all while being payed 10.00 an hour. I learned how to do most of the stuff on my own. When new people were hired in clothing I was the one to train them. My manager wasn’t very helpful either. If she saw a dog in the store she would play with it and ignore calls over the radio. The managers would also bad talk other employees behind their backs. I understand if you don’t like someone but as a higher up respect is big. Honestly, you’ll be over worked and underpaid. 

Always plenty to do and coustomers are fairly nice for the most part. Days go by quickly and most employees are nice to work with. I have learned that the store is under staffed and unerpaid. Mangement dose not treat every one equely. The employee hand book only applies to a select few. For everyone else it is a free for all and it dose not apply. Pretty relaxed place to work. The younger generation always has their drama. But that is just the way the younger generation is. The hardest thing of all is when you need help or need to talk to a manager, their not there for you and they don't get back to you making it stressful. And the few back stabbing adults that dont recpect others and try to ruin them making it hard to have a voice to defend yourself. Fun to work though for most part and fair bennifits.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Close to home. Friendly people

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Too low of pay for full time employees. Even for those who are required to take classes for the job outside of work. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
If you plan on doing other's work besides your own. On top of babysitting the teenagers working there. This is the job for you.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Busy getting the things done that others refuse to do

There are some pros and cons to the St.Joe store. Cons are management lacks interest of doing there part. They don't know how to run a business. They let other associates treat others horrible. The department managers have no true say in anything but they keep getting yelled at. There is no consistency in the order of things at all. Pros OK pay, benefits are very pricey but you do get a 10% off. More cons than pros. They have lost several people do to lack of management skills that are there and how people get treated. Harassment does take place

Was very hopeful upon accepting the job offer, however as time passed I realized it wasn't exactly what I was told and how poorly things were managed. Then the store manager left and a completely incompetent assistant manager somehow moved into the manager position. She does not have the skills needed to manage the store. In fact she is an underhanded liar and should not be trusted especially with the fake smile she hides behind.

I learned that no matter where you work there will be some people you do not get a long with but you have to put it behind you and go on. Another thing i learned is not one person can work for 8 hours by their selves in retail and try to help everyone. A normal work day for me is in the boot department and normally by myself but if we are busy they pull me to cash and leave my most expensive department unattended.

Not a very good place to work management doesn't see you as an equal it is not a fun place to work you do not get paid what you deserve your employees are looked at as thieves management of other departments don't get treated as managers they get treated as lower employees it's a very sad place to work they need a new manager that knows what they are doing and knows how to treat people you won't get paid what you're worth it's not worth the stress

the managers do not care about your wellbeing or life outside of work. they are not willing to work with you for a schedule that fits best and theres never much work to do, not a good fit for those who cant sit still. not LGBTQ friendly in the slightest. my head of department never answered my texts and most of the and most of the managers are passive aggressive and not easy to talk to, they only got 1 star because i am unable to give 0 stars. 

Management was very rude and was unable to hold their temper. As a boots associate you are also expected to run the decor department. You are asked to decorate and maintain the decor department while putting most to all of your time into boots, in summary you’re responsible for both sections but they want you to stay in boots. You’re supposed to be given 2 15 minute breaks and up to an hours lunch, most of the time you only get the lunch due to staffing issues.
