Pros

Free product when a new 1 lotion comes 30% discount

Cons

Higher Managers talk about associates and not in a good way...they rate them from 1-3 with 1 being the best...they say if your a 3 you wont get any hrs thats a lie..i changed someone to a 1 n the store manager changed her hrs they claim the computer schedules u yes it is true but if the SM wanted to schedule you they could change it...they always leave associates on the floor to run there segments while they sit in the back, guess what they bonus and you dont...im leaving this company when i can i dont respect how they treat ppl here unless you really work your butt off and kiss some butt u wont move up and when u work too hard you wont move because they want you to stay there and do all the work...yes you will get hrs but only fr nov-jan after that maybe you'll have 8hrs in one week..only managers have the hrs all year..i love this company but things need to change

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.
