Pros of working at American Eagle Outfitters

The company works hard at staying up to date. They do well with what is not only going on in our culture and social environment, but also staying in tune with all the technological advances. They are constantly thinking of something new, better, and more efficient.

Cons of working at American Eagle Outfitters

I do not like the hours. I have a child in elementary school and the job is demanding. I rarely have weekends off, unless I request them and the hours are all over the place on a weekly basis.

American Eagle Outfitters benefits

My favorite benefit is the money invested into my HSA account and how great my healthcare is.
