      Loved the job, Hated upper management.

      Pros

      co-workers, contributing to customer's confidence, friendly competition. I want to be clear: The COMPANY is amazing- the things they believe in, their community out-reach, etc. However they drop the ball with upper management and not evaluating them properly from the viewpoint of assocaites and anyone under Store Managers.

      Cons

      pathetic pay for associates: go to a foodstore or bank and you'll make at least $2 more oer hour. No respect from upper management. Major favoritism- if they don't like you, they will force you out. They claim to care about a work-life balance, this is not the case. You are expected to drop everything and make changes in your day to accommodate their needs if someone calls out.

      False Hope

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      -Focus on inspiring & leading -Workshops on new products/topics once a month -Continuous training -Great corporate mission and consistent execution throughout all of the stores -The company spends a lot of money on marketing & training materials

      Cons

      -If you are excelling in the role you were hired to fulfill you will be seen as "valuable" and will be overworked. You will be given illusionary opportunities to move up. No matter how hard you work they will keep you in the same position because it makes the management look better & they don't want to take the time to develop new associates. -The management only cares about themselves and will stifle your desire to grow within the company -The attitudes of the management teams are very negative. The store manager was always too stressed and irrationally taking it out on the subordinates. -Horrible pay for all the hard work that is required at the store level.

      Working at Victoria's Secret has to one of the funnest, yet very controlled, positions I have ever had during my career.

      Pros

      The atmosphere and the people of Victoria's Secret are absolutely wonderful. There is very little tension in any of the stores that I have helped out at, my home store as well. The level of comradery and sense of closeness among employees and even the customers makes working here so enjoyable.

      Cons

      The only con I would say there is would be that there is no store level, nor district level, of loss prevention. The company can lose four times as much return in one day due to theft as opposed to the cost of employing someone for 2-3 months to prevent it.
