Pros

Free samples and ok discount.

Cons

Too many women who are too emotional when making decisions. No communication and no direction. Managment does not care about their employees, and they seem to pack on the responsibilities of 2-3 people with the pay of 1/2 person. Pay is not comparable to industry because they say your bonus should make up for it.

Pros

Compensation is competitive with other retailers in the Industry for exempt roles. Gratis is generous

Cons

The employee code of conduct is not consistent. It is virtually impossible to fire an employee who break’s rules, yet double standards exist when it comes to someone they favor. They do not take tenure or performance into account.
