Pros

Fun place to work, and the discount is great. I love how the company empowers women as well as takes strides in making the earth a better place to live by using resources that don't overtax mother earth. I love their message!! Also, my overall rating is 4 stars b/c I did enjoy working there, and the values of the company are great.

Cons

Management needs to eliminate favoritism, especially to the younger set. Pay should be better for a job that, at times, can be grueling. When staff hours are cut, and the store gets really busy, you can end running around like a lunatic with too few helping hands, and its not fair to the employee OR the customer who is getting short changed with your time and attention.

Pros

Discount , benefits and location close to public transporation

Cons

Sr. Leadership promotes the mission but they don't live up to empowering employees. There is a ton of turnover and there is no work/life balance.
