Pros

Great people to work with, friendly, knowledgeable and always willing to help you. Fun environment in a nice store with great products. Exciting to work with customers - known for good customer service.

Cons

I was hired for the summer part-time yet still only worked once in the span of two weeks. I was given two officially scheduled days (one of which they called me to cancel on because they had overbooked the amount of hours scheduled) and the rest call-ins. I have never been asked to come in on a call-in day yet. I'm typically only given work for three days a week, with only one of those days being a scheduled, non-call in shift. It's very hard to get hours in and they still haven't finished training me so I'm not authorized to work the cash wrap yet. I'm not sure if my hours will be able to get any better this summer since I haven't been given the training necessary and they aren't bringing me into the store to finish that training. In my opinion, it isn't fair for sales associates to be hired and then never needed to come in or used for anything.

Pros

Great brand to work for! Corporate leaders are great at motivating team down to associate level. (Not sure about Daniel yet though, I’m mostly referring to the tentured leadership team) There’s access to tools that offer clear communication (almost too much communication sometimes). Development is the core of this brand and managers are trained to foster internal talent when it’s identified. The product sold here is cherished by a huge fanbase as well- customers feed off of the excitement the associates have around the product.

Cons

Operationally demanding and challenging; don’t underestimate how much labor and planning goes into selling candles and lotion.
