Pros

Discounts, free products, pretty mindless, easy sales if you are a halfway attractive woman who can speak clearly, appears glamorous to the post teenage girl

Cons

I worked here during my summers at home during college, on top of completing unpaid internships when I wasn't working (ugh). My third summer, I ended up quitting VS because my manager was so incompetent at scheduling me- all i asked for was nights T, W, R, and weekends. The training was a joke- you have to know everything about these products (luckily, I'd been shopping here since I was 12 so it was a breeze) or you'll be an awful salesperson. I felt horrible being forced to ask people who barely spoke English to open a credit account- on several occasions I helped women open accounts who clearly had no idea what they were getting into. The manager stood behind me and praised me for closing the deal so quickly. CREDIT = UNETHICAL. Also, tons of shrink. TONS. We were hit by so many shoplifters... oh, and it's pretty embarrassing and inconvenient to have to be walked out by a manager after your shift, who then rummages through your bags. What is the world coming to?

Pros

Getting a discount on merchandise was nice, but not worth it!!

Cons

Horrible work place, there were so many cliques among employees and management. It feel like working with teenagers but most of the women were 30 and older. One of the managers was selling merchandise on OfferUp (even though it’s not allowed).
