American Eagle Outfitters Employee Job Reviews in the United States

"AEO has strong values and is committed to building teams from the ground up."

"American Eagle is a great company to work for, they have great benefits as well as flexible scheduling available to most levels of associates. They do have a hard time incorporating new ideas as well as providing new opportunities for growth for associates."

"I have worked for American Eagle outfitters for over a year and a half. I have enjoyed my time in this job as a part time asset to the management team and would recommend this job to anyone looking to be a part of a great company with flexible work hours, competitive pay, and great co workers."

"Great company that was able to not only let me learn but also lead. The teams and people are friendly and very supportive with an emphasis on your own growth and performance. EmberJS is known to be one of the hardest frameworks out there to pick up from scratch, but I was able to get things up to speed with the support of the very supportive UI team and my managers."

"Working there was very challenging, but also very rewarding."

"I've worked for this company for a little more then a year, the worst part about the job is upper management, the district manager constantly pushes "loyalty" down our throats and threatens to write us up if we do not make it. There's a lot of talk but absolutely no action to back it up. Leading by example is a huge motto if only upper management would actually follow this as well. There is not a lot of positive reinforcement. Huge amount of turnover in management. Can't say too much good, great discount."

"I've been with American Eagle for over 1 year. It is a great part time job with great flexible hours. However I have noticed there are very few opportunities to advance with the Company."

"Great place to work! Fun, easy-going environment with lots of enthusiastic people. Managers are great; always friendly and making jokes. Hours are very accommodating to students and are negotiable. Only con I can think of is not enough hours sometimes with the large number of employees.Overall a great place to work! Love it"
