Pros

Pretty chill for most part but like any retail job, it's a hit or miss depending on who your team is and your managers. They can either make you love or hate the job. For a part-time job, for a bit of extra income, it's not bad.

Cons

Don't try to make this your ultimate 'career' path. It's minimum wage at best and the company no longer hires full-timers anymore. So regardless, you will need a 2nd source of income.

Pros

They give you a ton of free products and it's easy to get into management working your way up.

Cons

Horrible job/life balance. You will be a one person show responsible for all moving parts. You will always be understaffed and underpaid.
