Pros

3 samples of whatever product you would like on the days you work. flexibility scheduling . Training on products from sales reps occasionally . Helping clients find the products they need could be a rewarding feeling.

Cons

some Gratis(free product) but not as much as i would think ,sometimes stuff that i don't want. Getting searched at the end of your shift is the most humiliating thing. The management has me turn every pocket inside out after i clock out, this can take at least 5 minutes when you are trying to go home and this is on your time.

Pros

+ monthly training gratis + brand and product training + exposure to working with luxury brands + technology device supplements role

Cons

- unstable hours / unstable income - part-time employee classification has a wide weekly hourly gap (e.g., 15-29 weekly hours) and the availability expectation is that of a full-time (e.g., required to be open 4-5 a week, open to close) - minimal career growth if wanting to become full-time within the same store
