Great company with a few issues to sort out.

Pros

The staff tend to be very knowledgeable, and at the time when I worked there, were truly empowered to do whatever it took to make certain customers had a great experience. This was my favorite thing about this company.

Cons

The direction of the company changes often, and you should be prepared to deal with that. One moment, gift registry was the most important metric in the world, the next moment it was completely forgotten in favor of customer email collection, which is quickly forgotten in favor of cooking class sign-ups. It's difficult to keep up with what is the important metric from week to week.

Pros

Great employee discount Positive company good environment if you love food and cooking

Cons

Doesn't do much to encourage sales associates to stay - despite the effort associates have to put in to gain product knowledge. Could offer transportation stipends to employees who work at locations with no available free parking, where public transit costs add up quickly (especially on a barely-above-minimum wage hourly pay rate).
