Pros

Gratis on bras, great friendships can be made with co-workers (as long as not managers), good products to back

Cons

Store manager was a horrible leader and constantly show favoritism. Had personal experience of having SM tell me I didn't mean anything to the company and I was no one special. I think a SM should never speak to an associate that way. The store moral was miserable and no one felt secure in their position or number of hours. The level of work and standards that are expected of associates don't match the pay in which is received.

Pros

Have met some amazing coworkers. Brand itself is fun.

Cons

Sudden Return to Work mandate 3 days in NY or OH SIX years after COVID. Any current employees outside of those states are being let go if they don’t uproot their lives and relocate. Many employees in those states built their lives around what seemed to be a permanent remote flexibility arrangement (most companies went back in 23). When Hillary Super came on she even stated in one of her first Q&A’s on remote work that where people do their jobs wasn’t a big concern for her as long as we continued to drive the business forward. The business is doing the best it ever has in the last five years. Leadership reasoning for mandate is continuing to fall flat. Mandate came absolutely out of NOWHERE.
