Pros

Experience in many areas. Sales, customer service .. etc There really aren’t any unfortunately. Company needs to take note of these terrible reviews.

Cons

Overall awful place to work. The management is hired based on favoritism and to keep the company “diverse”. Managers can’t form complete sentences to give direction.. also takes it upon themselves to make themselves at home literally in the office..... upper management NEEDS to pay closer attention to what goes on in he stores. The pressure to sell and make unrealistic goals is unimaginable when the compensation is horrid. The work-life balance is non-existent considering you will be there every single weekend and if you god forbid need a day off for an important event or emergency you will get guilt tripped how you’re not a reliable associate. Be prepared to receive an imaginable about of texts and calls during off hours if you are part of management. Store manager twists her only stories to try to make herself sound smart which is a long shot. Borderline harassed and abusive store manager with absolutely not brain and the most unprofessional manager I’ve ever can across in my life. No communication skills. I wouldn’t recommend this brand at any level.

Pros

Good commission and lovely people to work with

Cons

No work life balance, very poor management who showed favouritism and based progression on who they liked that day and not on performance. You are expected to hound customers as soon as they walk through the door and unless you eat sleep and breath bras you will always be doing something wrong. Nothing will ever be good enough for management and they will take any opportunity to bring you down. A cult of an organisation.
