Pros

Generous product discount on great products.

Cons

Insufficient training at all levels have led to high turnover, especially on the store management level. Unrealistic store budgets lead to payroll cuts, leaving the store vulnerable at peak times, making it more difficult to achieve budget numbers. Store is usually improperly staffed that quite often, that it is usually a manager and one other associate, two if you were lucky enough to have the budget for it. They have difficulty in hiring, training, and retaining, great employees.

Pros

The people that take the classes are great!

Cons

Everything about this place and company is toxic! No training of staff, pay is minimum wage for support staff, so you are left with no staff. The store is very dirty, no one cares enough to clean! Horrible hours, you have no life, have to work over 10 hour days. When you are on salary they take advantage of you!
