Pros

It's a job, vacation pay, small bonus if we make our numbers for the month. Allotment to buy jewelry. Doesn't pay whole thing but it helps.

Cons

50% off expensive plated metal crystal jewelry and with my pay rate I can't afford it. No medical or dental. Have to wear specific dress code and only Swarovski jewelry. Tough to sell overpriced costume jewelry in a slow retail market. High expectations from corporate. Manager who never works a night shift nor does anything taxing, she sits in office all day. Expected to cultivate phone clientele and send pictures and emails yet company doesn't supply wireless network so we are using our own data and cell phones. Expected to work alone often and close the store alone at night. Need I continue??

Pros

Product is beautiful. Great benefits including healthcare, vacation, on-site gym, and great product discounts.

Cons

I found very little work-life balance while employed at Swarovski. The atmosphere is highly reactive and stressful. The workload is not manageable, but you have to get it done. Sales are down and therefore the stress weighs on everyone. I worked with great people while there, however most have left and I would not recommend working for the Consumer Goods Business (CGB) side.

Pros

Working with beautiful, quality products. Fairly easy work physically. Great bonus and discounts. Many incentives.

Cons

Very cut throat an associates are not guided or managed to play a fair game on the floor. It was a free for all with no consideration. VERY competitive. Everyone is a key holder but not paid accordingly as key holders do management duties for not enough pay or benefits.
