Pros

Extremely fun and innovative brand - always new products to talk about and being involved in so many industries means there's always new ideas and events happening as well.

Cons

Very little opportunity for growing professionally / career - wise within the company. Would have loved to stay longer, but needed to grow my career outside of retail while I'm still a relatively recent college grad!
