Pros

Best discount ever! (74% off) Flexible schedules The product is amazing! Get to make people feel better about themselves. Work with lots of different people.

Cons

I didn't like being micro-managed from upper management AKA the district team. The service cycle is ridiculous. There are a lot of points that you need to hit with every guest, and you are secret shopped twice a month.

Pros

Good benefits, decent compensation ( base salary good, commission structure very limited)

Cons

Restructuring has been occurring for 5+ years with elimination of many positions held by committed, valuable, long term employees. No value by leadership for tenure. This has impacted the brand greatly. Aveda sells to small business owners ( salons) and salon owners value those long term personal relationships which the company sees no value in. Salon owners do not feel supported by Aveda as a brand. The integrity of the brand has suffered greatly since new leadership came in 5-6 years ago.
