Pros

None I can think of

Cons

- One of the most toxic workplaces I ever worked at - Salary was extremely low and miserable $7/hr - Staff expected to help unload and unpack at warehouse at odd hours like 10pm- midnight - Very limited toilet and food breaks, nearest toilet was infested with cockroaches - No place to sit, forced to stand for hours on end - Forced to carry heavy barrels of water - Boss stopped giving me work without reason, after I quit, the boss defamed me and told everyone that I didn't attend to a secret shopper as I was busy attending to a customer (totally made up story from my perspective and was never once communicated to me directly by management, showing how untrue this was) - A lot of negative energy and hatred towards competitors like The Body Shop - Colleagues very clique-ish and some are like bullies - No recognition/rewards despite pulling in top sales
