Pros

High energy, fun atmosphere. Encourages new ideas.

Cons

If you don't look like a model and fall between the age of 21-35, you just don't fit, no matter your skills and talents. Way too much focus is placed on looks, attire and personal style. It's as if they want their retail environments to look like a slick magazine ad.

Pros

I love that company offers wellness days and other benefits to focus on your mental health. I also like how there’s more training outlets for leadership and stylist.

Cons

The only con I would say is having an extra layer up for mental health insurance for stylist

Pros

Really fun products, customers are friendly.

Cons

Discount is similar to customer price. They keep everyone part time to avoid paying benefits. Required to harass every customer. Lack of management or support. No employee handbook.
