Pros

You make a lot of commission if you are knowledgeable &/or willing to sell people products they don't need. You get ten paid holidays including your birthday and paid vacation. Great place to learn valuable sales skills, very close to high pressure sales. Offering samples to mall traffic (this is an expensive job in general, and they pay you minimum wage)

Cons

No raises, ever. They say "Give yourself a raise" Many SM around the country complain about being forced to work off the clock overtime. I have seen them deny unemployment too many people who didn't deserve to be treated that way. High pressure sales with a script.
