Pros

Freedom of visuals for your boutique, guideline directives are sent out for company trend purposes. Boutique employees are extremely willing to help out (especially other short-staffed boutiques). Decent work/life balance, 401k plan offered, promote from within.

Cons

Horrible pay for their expectations, too much merchandise in-store (no communication with buyers or allocators), communication from HQ to the storefront is limited and always in the grey area, only FT positions available is for Boutique Managers- no one else. Poor quality of clothing and jewelry, it is sometimes difficult to stand behind the product knowing it could break or tear at any moment from taking it out of the shipping boxes.

Pros

I loved the flexibility of my boss scheduling me according to free time with my college work.

Cons

I felt like it was a very serious job and sometime my boss would make me go up to guests and keep askign them questions right when they walk in the door.
