Pros

good discounts ability to make commission, provides some motivation to push yourself to sell harder made some really amazing, supportive friends here

Cons

good luck trying to use sick hours without being guilted no training or positive onboarding whatsoever plenty of gossip and favouritism managers are passive aggressive lack of effective communication, some coworkers will not even make eye contact with you corporate visits are frequent and stressful part-timers are maxed out in terms of hours just below full-time to deny them benefits strict and irritating dress code

Pros

I love that company offers wellness days and other benefits to focus on your mental health. I also like how there’s more training outlets for leadership and stylist.

Cons

The only con I would say is having an extra layer up for mental health insurance for stylist

Pros

Majority of cross-functional team members are great to work with, toxic behavior is rarely tolerated.

Cons

Back to back deadlines No time for vacations (deadlines also consistently shift, making it difficult to pre-plan vacations that aren't a 3 day weekend) No growth/promotions (even when you've been handling tasks that were your boss's job for 4 years) Underpaid and overworked
