Pros

It was an okay experience.

Cons

It's a shame so many items have to be locked up (specifically the bags); it hurts the luxury shopping experience, but I understand why it's done. Employees can feel like wardens guarding the goods.

Pros

Everyone I work with is amazing and it's overall a very positive environment

Cons

Can be a tad stressful, especially in the shoe department where every single person needs a sales associate.
