Pros

Learn tons about health and nutrition. There is a lot of down time in which (if you are interested in it, which you should be) you can educate yourself on health, vitamins, supplements and the like. You learn to practice what you preach.Education it gave me was priceless. If you are interested in the sales industry it is a great job to hone those skills.

Cons

Low pay, long committment needed to advance past store manager. There are commissions on various things, but it is really a college job. If you become a store mangager you will be making around $9 an hour.

Pros

Generous discount, flexible hours, laidback

Cons

Colleagues will often fall to their lack of thorough training and lack of pay. Career progression is also a dead end when you hit store manager unless you want to give 5-10 years of your life to the company for hardly any pay.
