Pros

Different from any other retail job I have ever worked, in a great way. I love the idea they try to instill in employees that the guests should be treated like friends/family. Trying to build and teach others about the products they sell.

Cons

Too much workload that I would take home as management, with not enough pay to live off personally. I have worked retail my whole life and just needed a change of pace.
