Pros

For the retail industry...No late nights. Wonderful staff to work with, excluding upper management and corporate

Cons

Senior management....corporate!!! If you willing to just follow the leaders and be willing to be a puppet, over the years you will get your 3-5% raises and hopefully snag a better position. That's if senior management likes you enough, otherwise that will never happen. If you don't build relationships, quick, you won't last long. When it comes down to it, no matter how long you work for this company or relationships you build, if it comes down they will throw you to the wolves if need be.

Pros

* If you have an amazing team and management the day goes by fast. * Commission. * Easy to rely on foot traffic to meet goals. * If you ask for growth, they set thing ups that align with what you want, you just need to ask.

Cons

* If its slow, its SLOW. * There can be drama, it just depends on the department you're in.

Pros

Employee discount and free samples

Cons

A toxic environment where sales are almost zero because vendors are pulling their product off the shelf because their bills aren’t getting paid. They’re in the middle of coming out of a bankruptcy , if a client does come in, we usually don’t have the product to sell them ,only lines who are partially thriving is fragrance ! The hours are terrible. You get off work at nine and you’re expected to be back at 9:30 AM.
