Pros

Double discount was great. Mostly offered toward shoes and not the handbags. Found that odd since it started with handbags. Wouldn't you want your employees using the brand's bags? Fun environment to work (as long as you like your co-workers) because of the wall paper and colors. Instantly puts you in a great mood to work.

Cons

Commission structure only started one month before I left, pay raises were not given. Company just wanted to open more stores and not reward it's hard working employees. Keeps employees besides management in the dark about upcoming product and company changes. Not very clear on the steps to move up in the company. Did not receive proper coaching to have an advancing career in the company.

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

Really fun products, customers are friendly.

Cons

Discount is similar to customer price. They keep everyone part time to avoid paying benefits. Required to harass every customer. Lack of management or support. No employee handbook.
