      Pros

      Good benefits package, free products, discount at Bath & Body Works, Victoria's Secret, White Barn Candle Company, Henri Bendel, LA Senza

      Cons

      Making sales plan isn't good enough. You must always be +10% over plan or more to keep from getting a write up. The company's training program is minimal and confusing. Don't plan on working here unless you thrive in a heavily sales commission environment, without getting commission. DM's do not support their srores, and expect their SM's to be super human. Everyone in 2016 has received an increase in pay except SM's. This used to be a great, values based company that cared about it's employees. Now all that matters is the all mighty dollar, at the cost of good people.

      Pros

      The products were awesome. The customers were fun to work with and build a report with.

      Cons

      It was never enough! Hard hard work! Single coverage! Limited payroll for the amount of work needed to be done.

      Pros

      I tell everyone this is a great company to work for as a send job. A sales associate's hours varies since you have to work for your hours. I've had from 8-20 hours. During holiday I would see up to 35 hours a week. They value respect and integrity. Working here is like having a second family, you make so many friends. I've never experienced catty behavior here, and I worked with nothing but girls. I was a full-time student, and they don't have a problem working around your schedule.

      Cons

      Dishonest employees stealing your sales. I would have to be on the lookout and ring up my own customers in order to receive my hours. You have to work for your hours with this company. When I first started off here, it was fairly easy for everyone to get hours. After management hired a few dishonest associates, my hours plummeted. Management was well aware of these type of associates, yet they didn't know how to handle this confrontation. I expressed my desire to move up in the company, but was ignored. ***The company may be going for the worst, as they are only keeping a few people on their team. My store is a low volume store, and they only want to have 3 associates on the schedule (not including management which is 4) and another 3 associates for floorsets. That's ridiculous.***
