Pros
Your fellow associates will be some of the best people you will ever meet, and I am happy to have left having made some of my best friends here.
Cons
Everything else. For a company that preaches “people first” and tries to shove it up your wahoo every single day in an hour long “values” meeting where everyone lies, they sure as hell don’t care about their people. 401k is not matched, Time off is extremely limited, and getting it approved is a hassle — plus, you are not allowed to take unpaid time off. Wellness time is a pain to use, since you have to call into the gallery to speak to a manager and proceed to have to explain your symptoms. There are no bonuses, no commission, not even a pizza party… even if you make the company millions of dollars. Growing and developing a career here is close to impossible. On top of that, the CEO is a megalomaniac that spends all the money the hardworking galleries make on buying yachts and private jets disguised as a “company investment” instead of giving his workers a raise (no joke, last year during my review I got a raise of 50 cents) or even a christmas bonus. (Gallery and Field Leaders do get bonuses though, so they will be on you about numbers) All we got was a miserly 20 dollar starbucks giftcard on thanksgiving. Believe every con on glassdoor, for I didn’t and now I’m paying the price.
