Pros

Generally nice people/environment. It was nice to work for a company that tries to be ethical.

Cons

Middle management ruin it. Big bosses were always lovely and helpful, but regional support is a very toxic department. There seems to be no structure or process, rules change constantly without explaination. Bullying and toxic behaviour is rampant in recent years. its a shame that the cultural values and vision that the founders have, is squashed as soon as it gets to middle management. especially in WA.

Pros

Excellent inclusive company culture, employee discount, learning about natural ingredients for skincare, genuinely great and engaged team members, flexible work schedule for part time or casual positions.

Cons

High amount of work, unreasonable "evidence driven" feedback and coaching models, and unrealistic performance metrics for comically low pay, especially for floor coordinators. No additional pay given for specialty roles, which is many enhanced responsibilities over a specific area of the business, and little opportunity for career growth beyond the sales floor unless you are hired from an external management position. Floor Coordinator seems to be the highest rung most people can hit before being driven elsewhere.
