Pros

Gratis, double discount monthly, 401K and benefits Pretty chill work environment. Lots of food places around to grab lunch. Thats it.

Cons

Micromanaging of the store manager, feels like prison and your being watched constantly. No freedom whatsoever. Always have to be aware of breaks and lunches being taken. No water allowed on the sales floor! Scamming on hours worked.

Pros

* If you have an amazing team and management the day goes by fast. * Commission. * Easy to rely on foot traffic to meet goals. * If you ask for growth, they set thing ups that align with what you want, you just need to ask.

Cons

* If its slow, its SLOW. * There can be drama, it just depends on the department you're in.

Pros

Employee discount and free samples

Cons

A toxic environment where sales are almost zero because vendors are pulling their product off the shelf because their bills aren’t getting paid. They’re in the middle of coming out of a bankruptcy , if a client does come in, we usually don’t have the product to sell them ,only lines who are partially thriving is fragrance ! The hours are terrible. You get off work at nine and you’re expected to be back at 9:30 AM.
