Pros

While being a beauty adviser for Boots, I was a representative for the brand inside a local Target store. Target is one of the only places to buy a limited selection of Boots cosmetics and skincare products in the US. It allowed for self-management which you rarely find in retail positions unless you are a manager yourself. The PNW DM is very knowledgeable and a pleasure to work for. The amount of information regarding all the products can be overwhelming at first but, gets better with time. Boots is a great company who put a lot of quality into their products. There is potential to make well over your hourly rate with some great commission for "bonuses" when you meet goal.

Cons

Relying on other Target team members to account for customers needs was hard to always establish. The Target team would treat you like their fellow employee and at times made demands for you to help around the store and outside of your assigned section of solely Boots cosmetics. This made things difficult especially since you are ranked on the daily, weekly, and monthly sales of the Boots department within "your store" Splitting commission with coworkers when you split a store can be somewhat discouraging.

Pros

Benefits are some of the best I've been offered when looking at similar jobs (holidays, pension and company discount). Huge opportunity to move within the company quickly to so many different types of roles.

Cons

If you don't 'fit in', have a Boots look about you, it maybe harder to get to different jobs and places.
