Pros

The pay is great and for the most part the employees are very nice. Bath and Body has a great product, and great customer service. Also the training the company gives is pretty well detailed.

Cons

They do not know the meaning of work life balance at Bath and body. For store management 50-60 hour weeks happen all the time. The company is pretty good about granting time off, but when your not on vacation you working 50 hours plus. Also the company insists on constanly making last minute changes. The company often has a hard time getting the product needed to the stores, and the worst part is they blame the store when its empty.

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.
