Pros
Great products overall. Earning Gratis every month is a plus because you can give your own personal testimony on new products. Most of the time you are able to speak to your manager about scheduling and they can be flexible based on your needs. Discounts would be great if they could be used on top of deals--90% of the time, in-store coupons earn you a better deal, but the VS discount is a nice perk.
Cons
The recent restructure to essentially the entire company has taken its toll on business. SPAH tracking has really hurt many stores in our district and I believe that as we move forward into holiday season, it will only create more problems within the stores because so many associates will be pressured to make sales and it will create an unnecessary competitive and dishonest environment. Upper management is stressing sales and SPAH, and while they embellish it with "having fun with customers" and creating "a great experience for everyone", the focus is purely on making numbers and it puts a damper on the sales team. Do not work here if you dislike a fast-paced environment that measures your individual success based on just dollars that you can persuade someone to spend.
