Pros

-Good hours (but you have to bug them to give you hours, or else you won't get any.) -FINALLY a good management team. Great leadership and communication. -Fun atmosphere. -Awesome discounts at all Limited Brand stores (including Victoria's Secret.) -If you work hard, it will pay off eventually. -Floor sets are awesome and tons of fun. Management brings in pizza and soda for us.

Cons

-Management turn-over has been too much. We've gone through five Store Managers in the past year. Finally have some stability, though. -If you're not pushy about it, you will not get hours, and mostly call-ins. -Floor sets are LATE and screw up your sleep schedule. -Must call in 2 hours before call-in shifts. -Co-workers can be irritating and lazy... Management won't fire them, just give no hours to force them to quit.

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.
