Pros

Most of the customers are very friendly and so are all of my co-workers. Its a nice environment. flexible hours. You also get a lot of cool free stuff! You always end up smelling good when you get home!

Cons

The pay is not great and there is no room for advancement. Great first job though!

Pros

When I first started and up until very recently I loved my job and had a very positive experience. Overall I would say this is a great job. Not very much fair offering of promotions to employees in my opinion. This is a very good job but I am starting to feel burned out from doing the same things for years. This is a good job if you want to work some place fun and bubbly. One great thing about working here is that they are VERY flexible and understanding with school, other jobs, and request for time off.

Cons

female dominated workplace can sometimes cause drama, low pay, easy to get burned out, gossiping , the occasional rude and condescending manager, politics of getting promoted/lack of opportunity for advancement. Again, I believe this to be conditional to the store as well as the district so depending on where you live your experience could be completely different.
