Pros

Every tool that you might need to do your job is right there in the store. The company is very dedicated to learning and development and helping you succeed. Very very generous associate discount and gratis as well as compnay organized contests and rewards. The company cares about what is happening out in the stores.

Cons

Last minute changes can often disrupt personal plans. Floor changes on holidays and special days makes it difficult for some associates.

Pros

The 30% BBW and 20% VS discount. Working with peers, people you can relate to and become good friends with. Gratis. (Free stuff)

Cons

Managers and CSL's get away with EVERYTHING. One night, the CSL sat in the back all night and I was the only one on the floor, made the segment all by myself in 40 minutes, and all she said was "I owe you starbucks". (Which I never got) Call ins (Usually the only hours you get, unless you are a favorite) For all the hassling of customers and pushing we do, there should be some sort of commission or incentives for associates. LOW pay. Minimum wage. For me, no hours during the week (except maybe a call in) and then my Saturdays have one long shift, and friday and Sunday, both call ins. Going to school during the week, this really makes me have NO life what so ever. FLOORSETS!!!! Always scheduled til 12, never leave before 2 am. On Sundays. Even if you don't have "overnight" availability.

Pros

For a part time job it is a fun place to work. There are lots of different products they allow you to try on.

Cons

The hours are very minimal. A lot of times they send you home early or call and cancel shifts. There is a lot of pressure to ensure customers buy something.
