      Pros

      Excellent ongoing training, lots of free products to try for personal testimony to clients, Beautiful products that you will sell with pride. 40 hour work week,so life work balance is manageable. Fast pace environment so your day moves by quickly. Clients love the store and will return, which creates an inimate, friendly relationship.

      Cons

      Limited floor coverage will exhaust you during peak selling periods. Excessive multi-tasking, High stress and pressure to achieve segment goals, especially with reagard to selling Angel Cards (credit). Excessive floor changes that require associates and managers to work long hours completing floor sets.

      Pros

      It's amazing how many people have posted negative responses to this company for things that I can't imagine any retail company would let you do. VS gives a great associate discount, extra discounts for the holidays, a ridiculous amount of free stuff and $15 bras...The managers at this branch are fantastic and do let your know when you're doing a good job. I'm sure that, as in all retail jobs, experience varies location to location, but this is a GREAT location! There is pressure to sell credit cards but you learn your own limits and some people are just not gonna be as pushy as others...and ultimately this store's not gonna fire you just because you haven't sold enough credit cards. There are many other things that make you a great employee, and they recognize those too.

      Cons

      Random days are blacked out so that you can't ask for them off, which can be kind of terrible and annoying, especially since employees aren't told about them in advance. Call-ins are awful, but my last job had them too so maybe I've just gotten used to it.

      Pros

      Lots of room for advancement Benefits for management very good, four weeks vacation for store managers Great discounts, free merchandise almost monthly

      Cons

      It can differ from store to store, I worked for one during college that I really enjoyed, and transferred to another when I moved back home. The new one was awful. The pressure to sell credit cards was intense, and the respect for needing a weekend off every once in awhile was not there. The company is great if you are a full time employee, awful if you are just an associate or lower level management.
