Pros

I love the products. They give you gratis every time something new comes out or even when the seasons change and the pay is good too.

Cons

I really feel like they should watch who they hire. Everyone is not meant to be a manager. The manager I worked for is lazy, condescending, rude and pushy. She likes to take over everyone's sales but then she would tell us that our hours are based on who sells more. She would also fabricate a lot of information about the French and the products. She isn't the most truthful person to work for. She will have an issue with you but won't say anything to you about it to address it. But she doesn't mind talking crap about others to other key holders in the store. She loves to pin everything on everyone else and won't take any responsibility for anything that goes wrong. Lastly, she had this attitude to where she says "it's not my problem" and "because I leaned to do it the hard way, so will you". And she has really bad BO. You can smell it outside the store.
