Pros

gratis, great discount, pays very well compared to most retail, truly wonderful products that sell themselves, other boutiques always willing to help via phone and email so there is surely some team work in the company, company is very charitable

Cons

scheduling usually wasn't done till the day before, schedule usually doesn't allow for anyone to be able to take breaks so if you're working an 8 hour shift, you're expected not to eat or drink. You're also expected not to sit. Ever. This was a big deal. Sitting was a bigger offense than being late or not completing daily tasks. The acting manager made a 9 months pregnant staff member sit on a cement floor instead of in a chair because "chairs are for our VIPS" Yes. I am serious. Pregnant woman on the floor. There was no breakroom so if you possibly found a few minutes to eat, you were expected to eat in the bathroom. Gross. I was hired to train for management and was told I'd be full time within a month or two. 5 months later I was still part-time. I wouldn't advise anyone to work there unless they have a full-time, salaried job in writing. They pay the managers well and the perks are endless so they dangle the "manager" thing around like a carrot in front of a donkey to get maximum performance out of their part-time staff but they don't actually follow through. The shop I worked in has been without an on-site manager for the better part of a year.
