Pros

love the products; you are eligible for discounts at Victorias Secret which rarely has sales on some of the items I like

Cons

Once you become an employee they take you off coupon mailing lists and your discount is not given on ANY sale item which means no discounts no coupons for you. I have now been given call in hours for the last few Saturdays which means I cannot plan on any family time. Last week I had 3 call ins and actually recieved NO hours. If I relied on this paycheck I would be starving.

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.
