Pros

The growth potential with this "still young" company is monumental! I cannot express to you, enough- the value I have found in the relationships that I have built in the short time that I've been with the company. I have learned so much about myself and believe that I am capable of so much more because EWC has successfully coached me to do my job efficiently and passionately. It's hard not to get caught up in the passion that every manager exudes in this region. They sincerely love their jobs and love this company. It's also hard not to get excited about this crazy strong brand. It's young, fashion forward, and let's face it- I'm addicted to my good good skin now! They have a base hourly pay and lots of opportunity to make more through commissions and bonuses. How hard you work will correlate directly with how much you make. Are you in the business of being awesome? Then come work here and make some awesome money while you're at it.

Cons

Not everyone is cut out for this job, but it's worth an HONEST effort.

Pros

Hourly wage plus commission for selling passes which somewhat sell themselves. Plus, team bonuses every pay period if everyone does well. Written scripts for anything you may need to say to a guest. Tasks other than selling passes are fairly simple. Fun outings with coworkers to promote team harmony. My franchise owners are super friendly and encourage us to do well with plenty of incentives. My management is also very positive, understanding and dedicated to a positive working environment.

Cons

Each location is run by different owners so experiences could be worst elsewhere. You have to meet store goals in order to keep in good standing. There isn't much space for growth if you want to move up - you pretty much have to wait for the franchise to grow to multiple locations before new positions open up.
