Pros

Flexible hours depending on the mall location. Occasionally, commission was raised for select products or holiday periods. The best part about it was by far the 75% discount on the 50% mark up products. Made sure employees were given opportunity to learn about the products sold.

Cons

Base commission was low. Upper management unwilling to higher employees when needed. Often hired individuals with no prior knowledge of any product sold by the company. Product information was provided but no continuing education on the vast array of supplements employees are expected to sell. Only felt the need to inform employees further when the product was extremely overpriced and was beneficial to the companies failing financial situation. Treated employees poorly from upper management and gave no concern to employees time.
