Pros

I worked at one store for 5 months and then transferred because I moved back home after college. It is truly like working in a boutique so it is really fun. You get close with your co workers and you get to help customers. I personally enjoy styling and this was a great way for me to connect with customers and help them out. It is an overall easy job. Good discount and good dress code. Get to wear three pieces of jewelry a day.

Cons

The company grew too fast for corporate to handle. My transfer took over a month to process and HR was very difficult with being on top of the situation. Also within my 7 months of working here I had only met one person from corporate who did not even introduce them self to me or make an effort to connect with me. They came into the store just to "check in" and our conversation laster 2 minutes of her telling me what I did well/ bad with. Also it is hard because only 6 people work in a boutique so it is hard to switch days off etc.

Pros

Flexibility, great community, growth opportunities, supportive executives

Cons

Nothing about the business. Liquidation and closure of the brand was one of the hardest things I've ever had to do.
