Pros

Great discount as well as fun atmosphere. Products are of a higher quality and easy to demonstrate how to use, making it fun to show to the customer. Love how amazing the store always smells.

Cons

Mostly negative feedback from DMs and RMs. Not a great work/life balance. Products carried are not consistent from store to store which is a frustration to our customers as well as associates. Even the consistency of how the stores look is based on volume when it used to be all stores were provided the same visual elements. The company has changed so much in the past couple of years and is not as wonderful to work for as it once was.

Pros

Great brand to work for! Corporate leaders are great at motivating team down to associate level. (Not sure about Daniel yet though, I’m mostly referring to the tentured leadership team) There’s access to tools that offer clear communication (almost too much communication sometimes). Development is the core of this brand and managers are trained to foster internal talent when it’s identified. The product sold here is cherished by a huge fanbase as well- customers feed off of the excitement the associates have around the product.

Cons

Operationally demanding and challenging; don’t underestimate how much labor and planning goes into selling candles and lotion.
