-Thee biggest downside of working at Victoria's Secret Stores, is the fact that the management (at least at my store in washington) would give you hours based on how many credit attempts you made, instead of how well you were personally doing in sales & customer experience.
-As typical with most retail people can be rude & pushy, asking you to cater to their every need.
-People often treat it as a dating service during store hours & even as a 1-900 # after store hours.
- If you say your available 24 hrs, they will use you for literally 24 hrs. I've had shifts from 7:30 to 1:00-3:00 am because of the constant re-arranging of store signage & product.
-On calls (which will be used at every store locations) are the hardest part of maintaining a personally life seperate from the store's needs.
- Sizes do not go above a 40-DD. It is personally hard to tell a plus size women that we don't have her size, but carry an abundant amount of 28-AA. Makes customer satisfaction & experience so much harder.
- It is a nessesity to learn every single product in the store (which is hard to do since they are so often changing & re-doing product) If you don't you know all of the product you won't have any success with Victoria's Secret stores.
