Pros

BBW is certainly a fun environment to work in. The discount is great, especially since it applies to VIctoria's Secret. We get free products quite frequently and get the behind-the-scenes preview of new products that are coming out. The job is fairly easy, and requires lots of heavy lifting and trips to offsite which is a benefit to me since it keeps me moving and not just standing around all day. As a sales leader, you get a decent amount of hours as well. They also promote within the company a lot too. After 3 years as an associate I was asked to take over as a Sales Leader.

Cons

To make room for new products and fragrances, the company discontinues products A LOT. This leads to super angry customers! Sometimes it becomes difficult to try and show them a similar product/smell because many customers are stuck on what they loved. As a sales associate, especially during summer, it becomes difficult to get shifts. You're lucky to get 1-2 shifts a week at 4-5 hours a piece. I would recommend BBW as a "second" job, not a primary job if you're in need of money, although the hours do pick up during holiday. The call-in shifts arent the greatest, since you basically have to clear your schedule in case they need you to work.
