Pros

Able to move horizontally in the company at a low level

Cons

Inbred organisation with low level of skills in almost every position. They hire a large quantity of cheap foreign labour at just above minimum wage, but nearly all other roles that are on a salary are 50% under market value. There is also limited personal growth as the company rely on personal relationships for promotion and most of the people in the company came straight from school when the company started and have there high position through longevity rather than competence.

Pros

Excellent inclusive company culture, employee discount, learning about natural ingredients for skincare, genuinely great and engaged team members, flexible work schedule for part time or casual positions.

Cons

High amount of work, unreasonable "evidence driven" feedback and coaching models, and unrealistic performance metrics for comically low pay, especially for floor coordinators. No additional pay given for specialty roles, which is many enhanced responsibilities over a specific area of the business, and little opportunity for career growth beyond the sales floor unless you are hired from an external management position. Floor Coordinator seems to be the highest rung most people can hit before being driven elsewhere.
