Pros

good discount, great product, competetive salary, stores a generally located in a desireable place to work, great benefits and you can make some wonderful friends.

Cons

long hours, high turnover, too few payroll hours, working frequently by yourself for 4+ hours at a time, don't trust you enough to make a decision without your DM's input. If you are going to pay someone more than the average store manager salary, then let them make a decision. These are not idiots that are store managers but hard working and a lot of self-supporting people.

Pros

Great brand to work for! Corporate leaders are great at motivating team down to associate level. (Not sure about Daniel yet though, I’m mostly referring to the tentured leadership team) There’s access to tools that offer clear communication (almost too much communication sometimes). Development is the core of this brand and managers are trained to foster internal talent when it’s identified. The product sold here is cherished by a huge fanbase as well- customers feed off of the excitement the associates have around the product.

Cons

Operationally demanding and challenging; don’t underestimate how much labor and planning goes into selling candles and lotion.
