Horrible Schedule

Pros

good pay for a part time discount on regularly priced items

Cons

they are NOT flexible on schedule like they say they are. I had a set schedule that they often did not follow. I was put on the schedule outside of my availability at least once a week. Also every single time I requested off they put me on the schedule even if the time was approved. They also have "black out days" that everyone is required to work that keep you there overnight until 2am.

Pros

Very flexible scheduling which is perfect for students. Used to give lots of gratis (freebies). 30% employee discount at BBW, White Barn, Victoria Secret (extra 10% during the holidays for a limited time). Most coworkers are amazing. Excellent experience for customer service and time management.

Cons

Hours are given to top sellers only. Often short staffed and will be playing several roles. Several cut shifts which are often last minute. Typical retail holiday hours (crazy 6pm-2 am) during Thanksgiving- Black Friday. Company is VERY money centered. Fragrances are OFTEN recycled or slightly "spruced" up and associates are supposed to support/fake it's new-ness.

Pros

In my experience the Sales Lead Team is supportive and motivated and encouraged to develop their teams

Cons

Very inconsistent and unreliable schedule. I have had shifts cut because they didn't have enough hours at least once a week on average despite being atop performing associate.
