Pros

lose some weight from constanting running around, you will do the job that 2 people need to do!

Cons

no work/life balace floorsets change all the time as a manager need to be on floor at all times, this means working from home, if you have a surprise visit and you have step to the restroom, must explain yourself, this only happened once but it was degrading and has me reconsidering my career!

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.
