Pros

I had an amazing store manager and learned A LOT about the products. You get the supplements cheap for being an employee. The job is pretty much a piece of cake once you learn the vitamin world commitment and actually practice it.

Cons

The main thing that sucks is how corporate is constantly down your throat about how much money the store SHOULD be making...it's quite annoying when all you really want to do is help the customer. Plus, on their mystery shops there is SOOOO much that you have to do to get a 100%, some of which aren't even part of the VW commitment
