Pros

It's fun to look around the store (on your precisely monitored 15 minute break), the staff is friendly, human resource department is very helpful and has it together, benefits are offered (but not until you work there for 6 months or some ridiculous amount of time)

Cons

Demeaning, bureaucratic... I worked in the spa and they took away internet privileges and stools for the client coordinator to sit when they weren't busy. The job is very boring and requires little to no skill or knowledge. A monkey could literally do this job. You also have to stand for your 8 hour shifts. Maybe that is why they pay hourly and not much more than minimum wage. Also, no commission on products for client coordinators. Overall a terrible job.

Pros

Good commission (for my department it was 10%), great coworkers—made amazing friends from my time here!! Opportunity for lots of commission $ during busy times.

Cons

Management is awful.. Plays favorites to an INSANE degree. For whatever reason I got onto the bad side of my department manager. Literally would call me into the office (taking away time on the floor to sell) to YELL at me until I cried for things that my coworkers got away with and didn’t even get so much as a talking to. Btw, what got me this treatment? Would be something pretty awful right? Coming in 5 min late. Big whoop. Also, management would promote people who quite literally had to take leaves of absence after having sexual harassment claims made against them… but then not only were they allowed to come back BUT also become floor managers. And what happened when he made it to that position? Literally got a sexual harassment claim again. I wonder how that could have been mitigated? The favoritism is so severe and unprofessional that when I was asking to get my job back for the holiday season I was told that there was nothing in the schedule available for me when in fact they were short staffed. And my coworker? The manager literally responded with “yes PLEASE 😍” yes. With the emoji. Grown man btw! Also, during that period the store was very shortstaffed with people quitting left and right. So, a lie.
