Pros

They sell ethically manufactured clothes, some made in Canada.

Cons

The clothes are expensive but the c"CEO argues they are not. I can often find the exact same brads in Winnners, Marshall's or the Bay far cheaper. The staff are curt, especially the CEO, her comments on FB to her sales staff are often snappish, she forbids negative comments from anyone, a clear sign of denial. Let the people use their voice then you can see problem areas and fix. Also for the price of enrolment you get money towards clothes which can only be used for you. I tried to get it divided for customers and was told no. This does little to help a starting sales person. Sure they give you a Facebook page but no help outside of that. No starter kit, no help promoting even though you need 200 ppl to keep the page going. And all the feed back from potential custermers is the clothes are too expensive. Then the head office staff just tell you, no they're not. When yes, they really are. Stock goes fast so when my customers go to buy, I hear, I wanted this but it is sold out in my size. Often things sell out the day of release. Well unless you are sitting at home watching, it is hard to get a piece you want. And as a seller I can't scoop up a bunch as I am not independently wealthy. Unless you are available everyday at noon pst, good luck. Working for SI cost me more then I earned.
